I have just called my midwife asking to see me about my back pains, bruised ribs and breathlessness. She told me to go direct to the Maternal Assessment Unit where they can check me much better than her. I don't need any appointment, it's a walk in. My DH is at work and I don't want to go alone.. not that I have a choice anyway. I will be off soon. Please wish me luck
thanks for all your messages girls
I am really glad I went to MAU. They have been very helpful. They have monitored the baby for nearly an hour. He is doing great and I am having no contractions yet My BP and urine was good. They have also done an internal and confirmed that my cervix is closed.
I have to wait until tomorrow for my blood results. The doctor suggested urinary infection, problem with my liver function or a trapped nerve. I was told to take Paracetamol and see how I get on. If I am no better in a few days, they will also refer me to the Physio.
I will update you tomorrow
Oh Petra, I'm so sorry, I have only just seen this. So sorry you had to go to the MAU on your own but glad everything is looking good. Fingers crossed the blood tests come back clear as well.
