Hello everyone
Im hoping for a little bit of advice please!
Last Friday I had my show, and all throughout the day afterwards was suffering with constant lower back pain. I got checked out at the labour ward and was told all OK and given some codeine to take.
The pain continued throughout the week, and the codeine werent having the effect I was hoping. On Wednesday evening, I started with a thick sticky brown discharge that continued into Thursday, although had seemed slightly to clear up. The pains in my back and lower abdomen (same as menstrual cramping) continued, and again the checks on baby came back OK. They took 2 swabs and said it may be a possible infection, but I wouldnt get my results until 4th Sep!
My pain worsened yesterday, and the discharge was thicker and more frequent than before. At around 6pm I started getting 'waves' of pain every 10 minutes in my sides and around my lower back, that got worse and then eased off. I wondered if they were contractions, but as the tightenings werent in my stomach, I didnt know what to put it down to. I was changing my pad frequently, and had very little sleep lastnight due to the pain.
At around 11am today, the 'waves' of pain eased off, although I have still been feeling rather tender today, with painful twinges every so often. My discharge is still there, and its starting to bother me know as to why it has gone on so long.
I was hoping for some advice from anybody that may have experienced anything similar. After being checked twice in the past week at hospital to be just sent home again, I feel abit weary about contacting them again. I just dont know what to do!
