Pre-eclampsia, did you get it again?

[bumpsmum]

The hypochondriac in me is freaking out the last few evenings I've been crazy itchy mostly my hands, left arm, belly and rib area it's driving me nuts, is it possible to develop obstetric cholestasis with a history of pre e? As its a liver thing it's within that 'family' of ailments.

Someone distract me before I scratch myself silly lol or slap the silly out of me! Xx

you can get it along with pre-e hun. Get on the phone to the midwife. When i called mine a few weeks back with itching she got me straight in for blood tests hun xxxx

Hi ladies. Been doing okay I guess... Feeling sick and sad. We are taking steps to getting our angels stuff corrected but its a but much to think about without getting really sad. Plus it's supposed to snow and dh work is making him go in and he has to take our daughter because of course day care is closed on weekends I don't want them on the rode with ice and snow especially when his work is stupid and doesn't even do anything... Big waste of time. Plus they know our situation. Stupid assholes

[sethsmummy]

awww mizzpodd im so sorry your feeling so sad huni. how is the correction stuff going hun?
I cant believe your oh's work made him go in :s stupid idiots.

bumpsmum - how are you feeling now?? xx

 

[MizzPodd]

Thanks ladies. My hubby went to get the ern changed and the funeral people are working on it now we r waiting for the people who give out birth certificates to call us back to let us know when we can get that changed too.

Had to go to hospital because of contractions but they gave me a shot tubertine (dot know how to spell it) and the contractions stopped. so now I'm back home finally. They also wanted baby HB to slow down a little but everything is good now. Just have terrible headache. Lol

 

[sethsmummy]

I'm glad things are starting to get sorted hun that's so exciting!

So sorry to hear that you had to goto hospital for contractions. I am very, very glad that they managed to stop them! I hope this head ache dissapears for you soon hun

xxxxx

 

[bumpsmum]

hope things settle down for you mizz pod

The itching wasn't too bad last night just at my ribs a bit, I have midwife in tue and to get all blood tests done now every 4 weeks from now so will mention it xx

 

[sethsmummy]

im glad it all settled down hun xx

 

[bumpsmum]

A bit early I know but I packed my hospital bag (just in case) at least I feel a bit productive rather than just waiting around for the pre-e to get me!

Obviously didn't bother with any baby bits yet, hopefully I will need to pack one this time but if baby is early wont be needed right away xx

 

[sethsmummy]

wish i was as organised as you! I'v got babies bag fully packed but mine is nowhere near done lol. Need to get it sorted though since iv not long left x

 

[MizzPodd]

Thank you ladies!
They did a ffn and it came back negative! So I'm breathing and I'm more confident that ill make it to the 30s!

Bumpsmum it's okay to pack early! I'm packing once I get to 28 weeks because it will feel so much more relieving not to think about it. We never know what will happen and plus like you said it'll give you something to do other than think about pre e go for it!

 

[Agiboma]

@mizzpod almost good news on the ffn test
As for me my bag is half packed not much for baby either do i got packed.

 

[MizzPodd]

Agiboma is it all setting in for you now that the day approaches??

Hi ladies I posted a while ago I was diagnosed with pregnancy induced hypertension with previous preeclampsia. Well I gave birth to my little girl on the 8th feb following my bp going up, following delivery I developed full blown eclampsia. Had to have magnesium sulphate the lot.m so it turns out I did get it again.
