Call from Docs this morning...... **Updated 1st page**

[Chrissy1]

Morning all

I had my 17 week MW appointment last week and because I was too late to have my bloods done before 12 weeks I had those bloods and my screening bloods all at the same time.

I've had a call this morning saying the doctor wants to see me this afternoon about the results...... They wouldn't tell me anything else on the phone.

Do you think I should be worried or is this normal???

I'm probably just being a worrywort again!!!


** Well panic over...... I'm anemic!!! As if they couldn't have said something on the phone to save me a day of worrying!!

Anyway.... I've got to take iron tablets for a bit and then I'll have to have another blood test to see how I'm getting on and take things from there. There's not really any danger to the baby unless I get really anemic but hopefully the tablets should help with my tiredness and dizzy spells.

thanks for all your warm wishes ladies..

Aww hun, sounds like you need some I'd be a worrywort too if they did this, doctors sure know how to raise our blood pressure

Easier said than done but try not to worry too much and I hope the appointment goes ok for you this afternoon. What time have you to go in? I'm sure it'll just be something easily resolved like that you're anaemic or perhaps your blood is negative rhesus and they want to discuss the implications with you.

Hope it goes ok, will be thinking of you.

[Chrissy1]

Cheers ladies...... I've got a feeling i'm going to be anemic.

I've been reading up on it this morning and I have been getting everything that low iron levels can make so I'm hoping that is what it is.

My appointment isn't until 3:45 so I'll let you all know how I get on when I get home

 

[Penstraze]

Good luck! If it is that your anemic thats easily sorted with iron tablets

Glad all is wellI agree with pesky not telling you till you get there

 

[Mildly]

Phew I started to panic for you when I read the first bit of your post. You must have been so worried all day

Glad the news is not too serious, it just means you need to look after yourself and that your OH must spoil you Hope the iron tablets kick in soon for you - your bubs must be stealing all your iron at the moment

 

[Bagpuss17]

I think it's just procedure that they have to call you in for the results, very worrying for you though in the meantime.

Hope the iron tablets kick in for you quickly. Drink plenty of water as they can make you constipated
