Well im back now, i've been in hospital since Friday with pain in near my ribs again. I have never known pain like that in my life and was in such a state rolling around on the floor and screaming. I rang my mum and she took me straight to hospital where they thought it was a blood clot in my lung. so i had all scans for that which were all fine and said it was just positioning of the baby. I burst into tears with frustration and said look at me how can you keep saying im in this much pain because of how the baby is laying. I dont dispute that babys positioning is painfull because i know that it is but i physically couldnt catch my breath it was horrendous. So anyway they sent me home saying they think i have 1 or 2 broken ribs which have scraped my lung a bit. My gp has phoned up and said enough is enough i've had a terrible pregnancy and he wants me to be induced as soon as i reach 37 weeks. At the minute im still in a lot of pain and 37 weeks seems a world away but hey its a lot closer then a possible 42 weeks.
So i just have to grin and bare it :( im dosed up to the eyeballs with pain killers and going to get some sleep now.
i've missed you all and congrats to those who have popped out thier little ones whilst i was away and hope the rest of you are doing ok.

aw hun, I'm really sorry to hear your suffering so much throughout this pregnancy. I'm glad your GP is taking note of you and that 37 weeks comes round quickly for you :hug:
 
Thanks for all your nice messages :)

it does make a difference
 
I'd heard it was possible for a baby to break mum's ribs, but I've never come across someone who's actually had it happen to them! You poor thing :hug: You sound like you've had a hell of a time, I'm glad your gp is pushing for you to be induced :hug:
