Yes go. Or ring them and see what they say. Don't just sit on it though, good luck x

I would go and get checked out hun - its what they are there for. On top of all this you're probably worrying too which won't be doing baby any good. Go and and get yourself checked, even if just to put your mind at ease. Hope you feel better soon xx

Absolutely. Phone your booking hospital and they should ask you to come in straight away, and or your MW and tell her that youre taking yourself in.

You need to be seen x

who would i ring ladies, triage, antinatal are maternal assesment? xx

 

[Bun87]

Maternity assessment unit I think you'd need to ring x

Definitely call. With those symptoms and having had protein in your urine you need to get any changes you noticed checked out. Pre-eclampsia can get very bad very quickly. Mine came on slowly with DS1 but they still kept insisting to check my blood twice a week.

I hope it all goes well.

Like a previous poster stated: Pre-e can get bad. I've been on bedrest since 26 weeks and am now 33 weeks. My blood pressure was getting higher and the doctor had me do a 24 hour urine test. If you're having headaches and sudden swelling you should get it checked out. My doctor has me going once a week since week 26 to keep an eye on my blood pressure and has me doing another 24 hour test this week. You don't want your little one to be too early. The only way to stop pre-e is to deliver. You should definitely get checked out. Hope everything goes good for you and your little one! Best of luck!
