Been to see midwife this morning and she said there was a lot of protein in my urine. Then checked my bp twice and its really raised, so she's suspecting pre eclampsia because I've been getting a lot of headaches too.

Going upto hospital in the next hour for monitoring. Just hope my bp comes down while I'm there cos I don't fancy spending the night there :(

Checked my bump measurement and I've only grown 1cm in 4 weeks. Not sure what this means? But I've always measured a bit ahead, so this is a first!

Just in hospital waiting room. Did another urine sample and its still got a lot of protein present and also white cells (not sure what that means). Blood has been taken, just gotta wait for results now. Currently waiting for a room to be free so I can be monitored. Also getting scanned to double check baby is ok. BP has come down a bit which is good though.

Midwife looked at my hands and said they're quite swollen and can feel edema (?) On my ankles, not sure what that means either!

white blood cells could be a kidney or bladder infection and the edema is when the skin is touched and the dip stays for a long time instead of the skin automatically bouncing back caused by too much fluid. Hope that helps (currently with my auntie whos a nurse lol). xxxx
