*update 1st post* a bit worried.

[JoAnn&Aimee]

UPDATE: I phoned my midwife who has told me to rest and drink plenty of fluids as I am a bit dehydrated these days. If things get worse tonight I've to phone the hospital. Also for the cramping pains, I am waiting an appointment for physio with suspected SPD and she said that the cramping pains could just be the SPD pains but again if they get worse contact hospital.

-------

I feel awful today. I am not sure if it is baby related or just general unwellness but I feel so hot, lightheaded, dizzy, a tad shaky, i've been getting a few bad migraines lately, flashing spots in my vision and I've been sick a lot. I don't want to phone midwife or hospital incase it is something silly but I am a bit concerned.
Also for the past 2 days I've been getting period like cramps, I can still feel Aimee move around, not as much as she usually does but that could be because space is getting limited in the bump now. I haven't said to my OH about the cramping pain as I don't want him to worry.

I would give the MW a quick call hun as it could be to do with your BP. Better just to get it checked out to be on the safe side, especially if you've been having vision disturbances xxx

Poor you love with the pains
Id still ring your mid wife the spotting in your vision would make me ring love
Don't feel like you will be wasting thier time (why is it we all feel like we cant ring them im the same)

The pains could be because your bones soften getting ready for birth and the weight of the baby on the pelvic floor can cause pain
also when the baby goes in to positon and bares down it can cause period type pains some babies move into postion ealry BeckyJ baby has been engaged for ages and she still here with baby in situe .

so i sure thats normal but im no expert and id ring the docs od middy for advice

I am always worried they'll think I am being a nuisance. Today was actually the first time throughout my pregnancy that I phoned!
