hi, I havent really been on here much in the last few weeks, been really tired, sick and ill. anyhow I noticed swelling on my feet the other night, so when i was at work i popped along to the pharmacy and had my blood pressure done, it was high so she advised me to go to see the doctor. havnt got a m/w appointment till im 34 weeks so i popped along and saw the nurse, had high blood pressure, went back later and my blood pressues had dropped but my urine had protein in it, she said she will let the midwifes know, anyway got a call today and have to go see them at the hospital 2morrow, my feet are still swollen.

On another note, my wrist is still hurting (been in constant pain with it since 28 weeks) but im having physio on it on monday
and the doctor has put me on iron tablets as im anemic, and they give me the runs
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
been hospital had blood and urine tests done, my urine has more protein in it now than it did the other day so on monday i gotta do a 24 hour urine collection and hand in to a midwife at my local clinic tuesday, gotta pop back to hospital 2morrow for another blood pressure check, and ive gotta rest and im not allowed to go to work monday nite hread my baby and its fine, its just my poor body as i got puffy fingers aswell now
