Pre-eclampsia, did you get it again?

Forums New posts
aww no hun i have everything crossed for you! Is there anything they can do to help your platelets come back up again? xxx
 
Bumpsmum thanks :hugs: I'm so happy you had a successful preemie story. That makes me feel better and plus I've been measuring two weeks ahead so if did have to deliver I think this baby is at a good nice weight :)

As of now I'm not sure. I have appt tomorrow and they will tell what the plan of care is going to be. Some women take prednisone or get steroids pumped into them through IV... I just want them to stay at 79 at least until I get stitch removed so I can stay there. I'm going to beg them to pre order the platelets for me too. I will update tomorrow after appt!
 
I'm trying not to over think but when I get my contractions now it feels like I can't close my area. Don't mean to be confusing or sharing tmi but usually I can kind of hold it back in lol kinda like when doing kegels but now it makes something down there push outward. I know I'll be 32 weeks in literally one day but I don't want to deliver anytime soon :(
Does anyone know the feeling I'm referring to? (I got it around labor with dd1 but I was 38-39 weeks at the time)
 
never experienced contractions Hun but I can imagine the feeling, here's hoping you can cope that extra 2 weeks and 1 day. My lo Daniel was 30+4 and coped really well he needed to be ventilated on day 2 but other than developing his lungs did amazing (better than his brother who cooked an extra 3 weeks) :hugs:

I'm struggling to get this GD under control but its still very early days for me but my fasting no too high think they'll introduce meds or something next week if I can't control it xx
 
triage for me this morn feel totally rotten, bit drowsy and blurry and pain under my right ribs hoping its just coz my sugars are quite high but best get checked over xx
 
oh mizzpod and bump good luck! you guys seem to be having a heck of a time! good thoughts coming to both of you and your lo's!
 
AGI good luck today and HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUR LO!!!
 
Agiboma good luck today hun :D I cant wait to see your update!!

oh no bumpsmum let us know how you get on hun! I have everything crossed for you.

Mizz how are you feeling today hun? xxx
 
well all the usual pre-e checks done only one concerning was a trace of protein still awaiting blood works if they show anything I will be called. Had a quick growth scan as midwife measured baby by tape a week behind. Anyhoo baby fine and measuring where he should be and is just under 3lb so great for gestation.

I need the diabetic team to monitor my vision very closely as the blurriness etc is due to slight swelling of the blood vessels behind my eyes. How I'm feeling being put down to the diabetes and to start on insulin tomo night :(

the registrar who was a very cheeky c*w made it look like i was at it! several mentions of 'anxious' in my notes.....who wouldn't be!!!!! x
 
what an eventful few days I'm having. Triage yesterday and been stuck at diabetic clinic all day today! on the plus side they're giving me another week to try get the diet down before I start insulin. I've been here (unfed) for so long I have 0.8 ketones so sent away to eat and to go back an hour later to retest! in this hour I FINALLY got my physio appointment for pelvic pain and I have SPD so sent away with crutches!! how am I gonna manage crutches and a toddler/plan

I've also to come back in the morning to see the optometrist about my right eye all I need now is for them to say I can't drive!

sat here fed up waiting on the diabetic
clinic to 'slot me in' to retest for ketones. Could do with a big cake and a glass of wine about now haha x
 
Hi ladies!!! Sorry I've been MIA! I've been up all night so sleep during the day when I'm not checking my blood sugar or at appointments lol my appointment went great!! Doc said I don't have to get transferee because of my platelets right now and twy would order some if I needed them. Also at my 34 week in two weeks they r checking my cervix and seeing how its looking and if it is obviously more thinned out and soft, they will remove the stitch earlier instead of at 36 weeks so this will be a huge appointment! I get a growth scan that day too
I am so happy and can't believe how far we have all come! I may have baby with four weeks!! But I know it won't be over 6 weeks because I can feel this baby going lower and lower. Once that stitch goes I think within a week or maybe two I will have my baby plus these contractions are becoming more painful. I also am gettin them NSTs every week starting tomorrow

Me and hubby are so happy to know this is becoming real!! I mean two more weeks and I'm in the safe zone of not having to transfer if baby comes and this makes it even more real!!! Omg!!

Bumpsmum :hugs: wow sorry you are running around with all of these issues!

Agiboma I hope you and lil mama are okay!!!!
 
Oh forgot to mention my bp has been good!
 
Had my NST today and it went great! My bp was good too. Scan showed my fluids are good and baby is head down (which I knew since 20 weeks lol)
His or her back is on the left side of my belly which explains all of the hits I get in the middle of my belly high medium and low lol

Come on 33 weeks! Can't wait to be there!

As far as labor and delivery I'm nervous about having flashbacks from pushing with my second daughter. Logically I know pushing this baby out doesnt mean they will die but mentally I'm afraid my mind will think that. That's what happened less than a year ago and I still haven't gotten over it. That's my biggest fear... Trying to remember this pregnancy is different and that my baby will be okay to survive outside my stomach. scary still
 
awww MizzPodd what bloody fantastic news! I am so happy for you its unreal :happydance:

sorry that your feeling scared hun, its only natural! :hugs: I cant wait for you to have your rainbow baby :D

how are things going with your little girls birth cert hun? are things moving any further along? :kiss: :hugs: xxxx
 
Thank you :hugs: :) the incompetent lady said it would take about 4 weeks before we heard back but at least she finally sent off the info. We have her urn corrected so im super happy about that. If this baby comes before we hear back I'm more at peace because she is in her peaceful little sanctuary now. I don't know what I'm having so if its a boy it will be exciting but overwhelming because of all her stuff under a boys name.
This baby will be named after my hubby and that's what's on her stuff right now so it will be super overwhelming.
 
how is everyone getting on, I'm pretty good for a change have most of the GD under control except fasting numbers so think they will need to address that but other wise keeping well and making a start on getting the baby bits together. This weeks task.......... a decent double pram. Anyone have any suggestions I like the baby jogger ones but a bit pricey for me as hoping to downsize to a single and boogie board in 6-9 months once Daniel on his feet more xx
 
So interesting night and morning for me. Had big nose bleed at 215am followed by Contractions since 3 am... They r still coming as im writing. Ten minutes apart mostly but some five to seven.
Checked everything at hospital when I finally went in at 0730. I tried to wait but this was hours of nonstop.:( Everything came back normal but because of the positive ffn, they have me first steroid shot. I go back tomorrow for second shot after my nst! Plus I have to get my progesterone shot so my butt cheeks will be sore lol

Basically I contract like crazy and they r turning into more intense ones good news is that I have the steroids for baby so if I deliver soon baby will do waaaaay better with breathing :D right now it's just a waiting game. I am on do nothing rest still and will go back in if they increase with pain or if I start getting more discharge. She saw a little but it could be the normal stuff so as long as it doesn't increase I should be good.

Oh goodness I just don't know what to think anymore lol my body is just unpredictable lol

I have all of baby's clothes washed, blankets, and bassinet ready. Hubby has to install carseat next week and move bassinet into our room.

I am hoping to make it to 36, my stitch removal date but we shall see. Gotta get to 34 first. Man these contractions are intense!! Just had one. They are now wrapping around to my back adding back contractions now. My gut tells me baby is coming within 3 weeks from now. If not before stitch is removed, then that very week! Sorry ladies I will respond to everyone later, contractions starting to hurt bad. Can't write anymore.
I will talk to everyone soon as I can though :hugs:
