Woke up around 9.30 feelin like a had a huge hangover!! Was spaced out, had a headache and had a permenant 'period pain'!! Bump was lookin verrrrry low!!
Rang the local maternity unit who asked me to go in so went in and i had high blood pressure & protein in my urine...she booked me in for another check on monday and suggested going home and having a bath and if i felt any worse ring the maternity unit at hospital.....Had a bath and felt 100% worse!!
Ended up at hospital had a scan as midwife couldnt find the head....she didnt expect me to be 4/5 palp!! Was hooked up to monitor for babys heartbeat and to see if i had any contractions.....I did....Every 4 mins!! Babys heartbeat was tip top!
Had internal examination...waters not leaking....cervix not opening......So no one can explain why i was having regular...painful contractions!! They asked me to stay in but i said unless there was something wrong i would rather go home and come back in if contractions worsen!!
So they gave me coedine and paracetamol and i came home....fell asleep and here i am....100% better!! No contractions this morning, baby moving fine!!

Just going to see how appt at mat unit goes 2moro now but the Doctor at hospital doesnt think they will let me get to due date or even if i will make it to that!!

Just thought i would share!!
