Feeling Awful!!

[MrsK]

Last night I had a really sore head before I went to bed and them woke at 2am god did I feel bad - nausea, sore head, shaky, roasting warm lower stomach pains. I was sore and couldnt lie in bed so I walked around the garden with my dog!! Got back to bed and must have finally got some sleep. When I woke again this morning I still felt sick and my head pounding so I just called the emergency doctor who I then went to see at 12. She was really nice giving me a full examination and reassured me all was okay but I do have a UTI - there is bugs in my urine! She gave me a precription for antibiotics to clear the infection and told me to drink lots of Barley water as the acid kills the bugs. But now I ve looked at the internet and seen that UTI can cause premature labour if untreated, as I had my last baby at 32 weeks I am a bit nervous now as I really dont want this to happen again!! Still not feeling too well the 'just not well feeling' coming and going!!

Glad you've got the antibiotics x hope you feel better soon

Dont worry hun, your gettin treated now. I think its only in severe cases it can cause premature labour, like if you had one all the way thru ur pregnancy

Hope you start to feel better soon hun x

Thank you - yes I am drinking Barley water like its going out of fashion (and I think Im getting heartburn from it now!) I never want to taste it again after this lol

 

[MrsR]

What's barley water? x glad you're feeling better

 

[all_iz_well]

hey hun...if its getting to much, just try cranberry juice, orange or guava juice. Fresh juice, like mix apple, orange, carrot, cranberry too and plain water alone. Its just upping your fluids which is most important to flush it all out!...xx

Its a drink like orange dilute, only flavour is barley water. Appartently it is acidy so this kills germs in urine.

Sounds a little like my day

been feeling really worn out, as i was walking to the doctors today i nearly fainted as i became really dizzy..

i went in and saw the midwife, she tested bp and it was fine, she found protein in my urine so has to send some off for testing. Now all im doing is worrying because ive read about pre- eclapsia.. ive scared myself now before i know the results... roll on friday.

At least your been treated, it sounds like ur midwife and docs are on the ball x
