Well girls the latest is i have pre-eclampsia! Went to my midwife today and she read the notes from when i was taken to ospital on saturday and then phoned through for my urine results.... All came back clear.:dance:

She then tested my sample i had brought with me and i had +++ protein! :roll: and it was very concentrated!

She asked how id been feeling and i said i had been moving flat and that on tuesday was quite dizzy and had a flashing light moment for about 5mins.

She phoned the hospital and they have said i don't need to come in yet but i do need to be on complete house arrest! :shock:

So now on Weekly midwife appointments and any headaches, dizziness, nausea, flashing lights or pain and i have to phone delivery suite and go straight in.... looks like i might be in for an early labor!
 
Jeez Sophie what a pain. Hope it's not serious and doesn't strike! Your bubs needs to cook longer! X
 
i know! :mad: i swear all this moving stuff is whats kicked it all off! Argh! all i wanted was somewhere to live!

On the up side i suppose it would give me a set date to look forward to!
 
Oh i hope it calms down and baby stays put for a few more weeks yet
 
Awwww sorry hun! You really need to be taking it easy now - moving is stressful at the best of times! xxx
 
i am. Gunna do absolutely nothing now... the most stressful thing i shall be doing is ironing all my lil mans washing ready for his arrival! :D
 
Sorry to hear this hun! Hope it settles down. I moved just before Christmas and its soooo stressful. Really glad it wasn't now when I'm.feeling knackered and swollen lol.

Thanks. The thing is i actually felt less stressed this week than i have the last month! things feel like they have finally lifted off my shoulders! Im just glad now i have my own place to relax in and not have to worry about other people being around.

im the same but im in dire need of nesting i think! Have got the bits for his room too and landlady just told uas we can decorate if we want to so gunna find a nice border to break up the white walls and get some blinds and some baby safe paint and then once he is here do some footprints/hand prints on the blinds to go in his room!:dance:

Its all pretty easy stuff appart from putting the bookcase together so once OH gets his bum in gear and does that i can get it all set up and arrange it how i want it! :)

Take it easy!!
I had two episodes of pre-eclampsia with DS1 which both ended up with me being admitted for a week each time and having 24hr urine collections and monitoring. On discharge I was checked by midwife every week and practice nurse in between...ultra cautious for some reason and I had steroid injections at the first episode (approx 34 weeks)
I ended up with a date set for induction in case I went overdue and in the end I had him on his due date although I got pre-ecplampsia during delivery and he got stuck so ended up with a section after 20hr labour.
