bp fine :):)

[nikkimitch]

Just back from midwife and bp and urine fine - so relieved - had been getting horrible headaches and after a private medical yesterday (for an insurance policy) where the nurse found protein in my wee was convinced I was heading for preeclampsia again - but no all fine

another appointment in 2 weeks (if she hangs around that long )

Glad to hear it went well and nothing untoward going on

midwife has just phoned - she has apparently been thinking about me overnight (sweet ) and has discussed me with the day unit who are going to review my notes - problem is when I had preeclampsia before my bp was never particularly high but I had lots of protein in my wee and bloods going off as my body didnt cope with even a slight rise - she wants to see me in a week rather than 2 and I will probably have to go in for a ctg and monitoring too - I am still not unduely concerned as sure most of my symptoms are due to being up with a stroppy three year old most of the night but nice to know she is taking it seriously

It is good they are monitoring you so closely. Hope it works out ok.

What is a ctg?

glad everythings ok for you !!

What is a ctg?

where they trace the baby's heartbeat and contractions and movements over a period of time to make sure the heartbeat is rising with movements and not dipping with BH - like the monitoring they use during labour
