Pre-eclampsia, did you get it again?

[nov_mum]

Yay for you ladies still cooking your babies nicely : ) My wee girl is a week old today and my bp is getting worse! 180/115 last night. Am trying to get on top of it again and wean slowly of the meds. I am so grateful she is on the outside now and no longer at the mercy at my stupid body. Great news that you are being monitored well mizzpod and 5th March Sethsmummy! Yipee!

 

[sethsmummy]

awww nov_mum i hope yoru BP settles soon hun. How is your little lady getting on? I bet she is just gorgeous

MissPodd... oh no hun i hope you stay local too hun. Its terrifying the thought of being away from family xxx

Hi Novmum,

are you out of hospital now? my bp went up after i gave birth with my last baby and ended up staying in a week - I really want to avoid that this time. what bp meds are you on?

Have started losing what I think is my plug following my sweep on Thurs eve. my husband told my mum that I had had a 'swipe'! lol

its so annoying that I cant just have 'normal' labour worries - Im thinking of bp ect, grr.

Mines spiked high too after the birth of gregor ... That's my main concern this time ... Novmum I wouldnt wean Ur self off them the now, u clearly still need them and i have to be fit and healthy to look after the bairn.. another couple of weeks Mrs and then think about it because the stress of a newborn could send u high xxxxx

 

[Jakkiw2]

Sorry I meant u need to be fit and healthy LOL xx

 

[MizzPodd]

How's everyone been doing? I know we are all at different points in our pregnant lol

 

[sethsmummy]

hey hun im doing ok. Getting more headaches and nausea but i think its because my lightbulb in my living room was too bright so its been changed to see if it helps. Apart from that and the darn itching i am doing well. Iv had a few days (since saturday) where little man has been very quiet but hes picking up today PHEW. Midwife again thursday fingers crossed my bp is a ok And i can pick up my antibiotics too for my UTI since iv not been able to get out there to collect them yet. Cant wait to be rid of it and not have to pee every 2 minutes lol

how are you doing? I have only 6 weeks left today! xx

 

[MizzPodd]

I'm glad to hear things are looking up for you! I hope your symptoms don't worsen and your bp is good! 6 weeks!!! Wow you are officially in the home stretch

I'm a little on edge this morning. Just stupid stuff. So my sperm donor abandoned my brothers and i a year ago and doesn't speak to us. Unfortunately some of my important mail goes to his address from when I lived there when I was 18... Instead of forwarding the mail, they ignore it which is so damn immature. I'm supposed to remain stress free as possible but I'm starring to lose that because I need these documents for taxes and other stuff. My hubby said he is sending a email asking for this stuff and then I will do an address change so this does not have to happen anymore. I hardly vent to anyone and being on bedrest I don't have anyone to talk to really. So when I try to get this stuff of my chest my mom doesn't have time she says to listen. I always listen to my family members problems and the one time I need to talk about it I get shut down. I have so much suppressed and its starting to unhinge because I never have an outlet. Wooh! Okay this felt kinda nice typing this out! Sorry for the rant lol

I'm currently doing the 24 hr again becuz doc wants to see if pre e is getting worse or staying mild. Have important appt tomorrow for length check and possibly ultrasound to check on baby growth. I'm supposed to be going to a fmf specialist too sometime in the next few weeks. I'm just excited about my appt tomorrow. Ill update after the appt. it's so much going on but I am staying positive no matter what although at the moment it's very hard!

 

[sethsmummy]

Awww hun im sorry your having to deal with all that crap! Feel free to pm me at any time if you need to vent hun! You shouldn't have to keep it all in Cant believe they haven't been forwarding your mail! i hope you get the address changed soon hun so they cant keep it anymore. I cant believe your mum wont sit and listen.. but then again my mum is the same. IT is nice to get things out and dont apologise hun you obviously need to get things offf your chest

Fingers crossed it has stayed mild hun Good luck for your appointment I hope it goes really well and you get good results. ooo and i hope you get a scan too its always nice seeing baby

 

[MizzPodd]

Thank you! That made me feel better and I do feel welcome to vent! Lol
We both will have good results... I'm sending you positive vibes

 

[sethsmummy]

[MizzPodd]

[Jakkiw2]

33 weeks no bp meds .... Woohoo.. well my next bp assessment is 2 morro ... I'll be asking my consultant if I'm getting started at 38 due to the gd .. oh I'm so shitting my self LOL xxx

 

[MizzPodd]

I have bp check tomorrow too and hopefully will go well! Are you wanting to deliver at 38 weeks?
I must admit I liked having dd1 a week earlier 39 weeks becuz of GD. I had my membranes swept and then my water broke the day of my induction after they cancelled the appt!! lol
