This whole post is going to be TMI so sorry in advance ;)

1. My bowel movements have become alot more regular, going from once a day to 8 yesterday and today diarrhea :cry:

2. I have really bad nausea, but am trying my hardest to eat for babys' sake.

3. I have a banging headache, I'm keeping my fluids up as it could be dehydration due to the diarrhea.

4. I am sooo tried it's unreal, I just want to sleep but don;t want to be up awake all night.

I have MW on Monday, but I don't know if I should call someone before then? It might just be a bug, or could it be the start of things?

It got so bad lastnight I cried my eyes out to OH as I just had no energy left and was so uncomfortable, he has to work until midnight too :(

Anyone have any ideas?
I was thinknig of calling MW tomorrow morning if I am not better, as I don't think I can even make it to the appointment if I am still like this as it is quite a walk, and I might ask if she can come see me instead?

Update.

Called up, they were concerned as they thought it would be blood from the back and not the front :/ But I assured them it wasn't.

Baby hasn't moved yet today which they wern't too worried about as it is still early.
They said it sounds like early signs so I'm going in to be checked over to see if I am dialating etc.

Hopefully it's just an infection they can get me some pills for. :thumbup:
Will try and keep everyone updated.

Update 2.

Well, I went hospital, they hooked me up to a monitor and picked up contractions again, but they were still only small so they wern't too concerned.

They did a urine sample and she said there was blood in my wee - she said it was probably a urine infection.
My BP & temp were fine.
They did a speclum to check my cervix, luckily it was shut! :happydance:

Went toilet after the speclum and I had a bit of beeding, she assured me it was from the speclum, I'm still bleeding a little now - I'm quite worried but apparently it's normal.

They sent me home with anti-sickness pills & told me to rest, they didn't give me antibiotics for the UTI as they wern't sure I had it, so I have to wait for them to ring me :( They said the diarrhea is from a bug :/

I got really upset after, everything is just taking it's toll, but I know I can definitley get to 37 weeks & have a waterbirth :thumbup:

Thanks for all the nice messages.

it could be the early sings - have you had any contractions or anything? i'd say ring your local labour ward/midwife and just ask - at the end of the day, they'll either say come in a be checked - if not, then at least you know, and your mind is at ease..
if it is - then they'll be ready and prepared!! :)
hehe..
hope all is okay though, and drink plentyy!!
xxxx
 
I'd just ring your MW and ask her what she thinks hun, at least then you'll get an answer and it'll put your mind at rest :hugs:
 
If you're unsure then just phone hun, thats what they are for :hugs:

It does sound like things are on the move for you though. I was so, so uncomfortable my last weeks and I felt drained and had the whole bowel movements thing too, plus feeling sick and stuff.
 
Hiya :) I've also been feeling pretty naff myself except i'm the opposite with the BM's lol.
I don't know what it could be, could be that we are getting close to the end now, or a nasty bug.
Ring them if you are worried they won't mind its what they are there for :) Also if you don't feel well enough to get to your appt i'm sure she won't mind going to your house instead :)
try + chill out/rest if you can + hope you feel better soon x
 
awwh you could always ring them just see what they say?
its hard to tell coz i think alot of us are getting the same things now we are towards the end but it may all be for different reasons who knows?
hope you feel okay tho:Dx
 
I know this is probably not helpful at all lol, but my friend is pretty far along and she had literally the EXACT same thing two days ago. She thought she'd gotten food poisoning because she was throwing up from the nausea, but nobody could ever pinpoint what it was. Hopefully it's just signs you're getting closer!
 
I've tried to get hold of my MW but can't :(

I text her asking if she could do a home visit on Monday instead as I don't see myself making it, no idea when she will reply!

I've managed to eat & have a shower & I'm drinking loads of water, just hope this doesn't last much longer!
:cry:

aww has your midwife not got back to you yet?
i hate it when the midwifes are unreliable because you'd think you could turn to them at any point but mine are just the same..even worse!:(
hope everything goes soon x

No :nope:
I went to the toilet for the 6th time (sorry TMI) and when I wiped the front I had a little blood, again I don;t know if I have cut myself, when I wiped again nothing was there! I've put a pad on to try and see if anymore is coming out & had a look with the mirror but can't see anything.
I don't have any cramps or anything.

I could literally cry, everything is going wrong in this pregnancy, my OH isn't home so if I am bleeding will be up the hospital on my own and won't see him till tomorrow :cry:

awww:hugs:
if i were you i wouldnt shave down there just for the next few days so you would be able to tell more easy if you had cut yourself maybe?it does seem abit stressfull now but itl be soo worth it in the end and most of the time we worry and it ends up to be nothing xx
 
Yeah I think I will refrain from it!
I had a teeny bit more blood, but I am almost vertain it's not from shaving.
It may be my plug as it is not bright red.
I am waiting for OH to get home (about midnightish) to see what he thinks as my diarrhea has gotten worse and I'm getting stabby pains down there :(

donna do you have a number for someone on here to let us know how you are?
xx

He ring so I told him, he was calm and said he will be home around 12.45ish & he will sit with me and we will decide on what to do, if I can wait until about 6ish we can get a lift, as we have no money for taxi and don't have a car.
