Sar - I would try quoting but it always seems to go wrong for meThanks for the advice, I knew phoning would be the right thing but I guess the reactions I keep getting from them is putting me off. I always get that sort of reaction due to being a nurse. They always think I look into things way more than I should.
It's great that you got to see your babies hair - that's amazing. It's a shame you'll have to have a c-section but at if it keeps the baby safe then anything is worth it.
So what are you gonna do, cant you self certify yourself for a week? Im surprised they havent kept you in, have you told your mw or consultant about the headaches and spots, i think you should![]()
Hi everyone *waves*
Lou, didn't you have bloods done again at 28 weeks? Iron levels is one of the things they look for as they usually go down when you're pregnant, it's that naughty baby nicking all the good stuff and leaving poor mummy with nothing lol. I think I'd be bypassing the dr and going straight up the hospital if my dr's attitude was like that![]()
Sorry I didn't reply to you guys, I've ended up in triage at the maternity hospital being monitored all morning. Thanks for all the advice. I did phone the MW and she seemed quite concerned this time so phoned triage and they wanted me in to check things over. They monitored the baby and checked my blood pressure and took bloods. My pressure was up at first but came down after resting, the baby seemed fine and my bloods showed that I am a little dehydrated and that my white cells are up. They basically said that I am suffering exhaustion from work so I have to rest and drink plenty and they are going to recheck everything on Monday. I am so glad I went cos my mind has been put at ease.
Thanks so much for all your help!
