Sounds like you've got what I've been poorly with, was like that all day Sunday and still achy and recovering now! And not eating properly :-( no appetite which isn't like me!

Evening ladies

LM, I hope when I get to that stage that I can be as calm and patient as you are being!

Bamama, hope that you're feeling better after your earlier nap x

DDB, glad you've got a supportive mum to help fight your corner - in my experience patients/relatives are often reluctant to put in complaints despite the good it can do. Fingers crossed that your readings stay nice and stable over the next few days x

Hope that everyone else is well and has had a good day xx

Afm, I'm ok - just tired which when I mentioned it to the consultant at my appt today, she laughed and said "welcome to the club!". I had a follow up appt with her today and she was happy with so so don't need to see her again for 6 weeks. She also said she wants me to have two additional scans to double check on baby's growth at 28 and then 34 weeks which I'm happy about - extra peeks at baby!

DDB that's awful what happened at the hosp, are you ok now?

About! Just busy. Finishing up at work this week so lots to do.

babymonster2

saf I'm jealous! I want to peek at my baby! Lol! Even though I had a big baby last time and told likely to this time no-one seems to want to give me a growth scan

Bamama

Yay! People! lol

I'm feeling better. Sort of. I woke up hungry so have had potato smiles and breaded mozzarella thingies. With buttery peas and sweetcorn on the side. And I've just eaten a bit of rhubarb crumble with cream. Probably not the best idea.

Had everyone phoning me to check I'm ok. Mother appears to have spread the news lol. OH isn't likely to be home before 12... he left at 4 this morning!

Saf... how come you need extra scans? If you don't mind me being nosey... I'm also very jealous at anyone who gets extra scans or heartbeat monitoring. Sorta like being punished for being a well behaved patient ><

Bamama

Savage... working late aren't you? I don't even have the energy for 4 hour shift in the middle of the day let alone be there at this time of night.

Good Evening ladies. how are you all?

Sorry i went awol today, will explain in a bit.

littlemoog hope you are ok. you are bearing up so well. so hope you get your little one soooon. labour vibes to you and the boldies.

DDB, that is aweful regarding the hospital and the doctors. glad your mum is making sure things are ok, def complain. grrrr. hugs to you though. xx

Bamama, hope you are ok hon and feeling better. lots of water (yuck i know). i had the same periody type pains last week at work and was panicking in case it was labour. also had back pain. that went in a few days.

today however i walked to the gp and my back was killing me. i went to get the palpitations checked out and the doctor then sent me to the hospital. so i went and gave some bloods as he wanted to test my thyroid and other stuff is ok, and also for an ECG. i panicked slightly but i went along. the weather was appauling and i got a cab there but my lovely mother in law came and picked me up. she dropped me home and came in for some tea and then after she left i thought sod work and went for a nap. i was supposed to be working but had told my manager that i had to rush out. so in work tomorrow and friday (last day). i am so tired and feel battered. also walking is a right mission, and i have some weird pains below my bump on my side.

i rang my mum and told her about the palpitations and she said its because i am fat!! can someone explain how she came out with that?

Saffagal

Lol, little noisier in here now

Bamama, I'm under consultant care for pre-existing high blood pressure and as the consultant has started me on some medication to manage it, she wants the extra scans to check that baby is growing well. Would be nice to not need them, but at the same time I am glad that they're offering the support and care to ensure that baby is ok

Bamama

Rups, don't listen to your mother. How long do you have to wait for the results? Two more days and you can have a nice relax I might join you in the finishing earlier than planned. If only to get the house ready!

Saf, sorry that you need the extra scans for something like that. Enjoy every minute of seeing the little one still jealous :P
