Well what a hectic weekend I have just had, I am in the process of moving house so I am abit stressed to say the least.
Friday night my feet, ankles, calves, hands and face all swelled up to an enormous rate. I called the duty doctor at casualty and was rushed in. I had my blood pressure tested which was sky high, they tested my urine which has traces of protain and then I had a series of blood tests which are showing signs of my developing Pre-eclampsia.
I have been sent home to rest and I have to go back Wedsnesday for the same tests and if the levels have increased or stayed the same I have to go back in and stay in
I had my scan today and baby is as happy and healthy as ever so there are no real worries yet.
Basically they have told me today that its likely I am developing Pre-eclampsia but they are going to try their hardest to keep baby in until I am 37 weeks (if this is possible).
I can't believe after such a happy pregnancy it is going wrong at the end!! But I was relieved that baby is ok that is my main concern.
So Ladies if I disapear after weds I will get my OH to keep you updated
