Okay had a bit of a scary incident... Was feeling a little "off" this morning and had a few dizzy spells (as you do..) and then I was standing at work talking to people and suddenly I blacked out and fell over sideways. I came to straight away but felt really strange, very teary and cried a bit. Workmates helped me up to sit and gave me water, but my hand was very shaky, and I felt really hot. Kept sitting for a while and had another little 'stare/blank out' while sitting there... Baby wasn't moving straight after and I got a lil scare...
Have felt bubs move since then and feeling much better now, but think I should get checked out just in case. Hopefully it's just one of those pregnancy things... :confused:

I think I would honey..Sounds like possible blood pressure problem.Just to be safe and put ur mind at ease. Let us know how u are doing. xxx

Haven't been in for a while and haven't been able to catch up on the post.

Well I had my 30 week check up today. My blood pressure is elevated and the doctor wasn't too happy about that :(. He now wants to see me in 2 weeks time (14th) and I have to have an ultrasound on 11th. At my next appointment, he will be booking me in for my ceaserean.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Hi everyone, sorry I havn't posted much lately. Been lurking though.
Everythings going well here, well apart from me being in pain almost everywhere, I really can't wait til she's born & I feel normal again.
I was talking to the ob yesterday about my birthing options & he's happy for me to have a vbac this time.... providing the placenta has moved ofcourse. I thought being in the country he would push for a repeat caesar, so I was shocked.
We're getting our bassinett from my sister back soon. We want to set it up a few weeks early so DS gets used to it.
I'm seeing a physio soon because I've got Carpal Tunnel Syndrome again, it sucks becaue it stayed away with DS til about 36 weeks so I only had about 2 weeks of it then, now I'll have 3 months of it. :rolleyes:

Evening all
2 weeks of work down 8 more to go :smiliedance: I love my job but Im just getting tired and have a very short fuse at the moment which is not the best with 20 5 and 6 year olds to deal with. Poor little dears have been yelled at a little bit too much this week on the upside the disgusting manners of some of them have improved dramatically. They are good kids though Ive been pretty lucky this year.
Ive had a ery frustrating week though. I found a classic pooh boarder online but had to wait to save up before I could get it, kept an eye on it checking the website every couple of days to make sure it was still there. Go to order it on Friday only 2 rolls left I need 4 and its discontiued. :hair: (no wonder I dont shop online) cant find it anywhere else in Aust or anything else I like. Found a couple of things I like in US but dont deliver international. Finally found the same boarder in US can get it delivered :smiliedance: so boarder is ordered and hopefully will arrive next week. Down side is postage is $95 US but by the time I ordered it at 5am over the phone (cant do orders online) I didnt care. but I figure its not too bad cause the rolls are cheeper so its only costing about $40 more all up. Well thats how I justify it and just didnt mention the postage cost to DP.
Well better head off to bed, have a slight cold but am headed to Adelaide for weekend so trying to get as much sleep as possible before that, the trip always takes a lot out of me but last one before bubs is born so hopefully Ill have everything I need after that.
Have a great weekend everyone.
Kristy

Hi all... I haven't posted for a while, but I've been keeping a track of all your posts. I feel like I'm getting massive now. A few days ago, Craig posted that our ob did a growth scan and estimated that baby will be at least 9pds :eek: Baby's head is measuring 34 weeks - not sure if that's how it's phrased - and I'm only 31 weeks. I know these things can be wrong, but it's helped me make my decision regarding the birth - definitely going for a c/s now. I actually feel relieved now I've made the decision :)

Hi everyone
I havent posted for a while either .I thought I would today as I have had a crappy couple of days and need to vent lol
I went to see the doctor on Wednesday for the results of my gd test and some other blood work .Well I dont have gd woohooooo .
I do have some other things going on ,I have way to much iron in my body its suppose to be around 20 something mine is over 50.
They dont know why and I had to have more blood tests yesterday to test my liver and thyroid.They said I may just be to sensative to to elivit .
My doctors dont test urine either and I asked why .They said unless they are worried about blood pressure they wont do it .
I have some swelling in feet hands and face and asked them to test it .I also have ketons,blood,and protien in my urine .So I also had to have another repeated urine sample taken .
My complaint it the doctor wanted me back in a week for the results I couldnt get in for nearly 2 weeks Im not happy lol .I just want to know whats wrong ,amI getting pre e ?.
Im not even aloowed to take anymore elevit due to my high iron levals.I did do some research online about pre e and it can affect your liver and you dont even have to have the high blood pressure .I did have a mild case of pre e with my first .Anyways just wanted to vent hope no one minds ( hope it all made sence )
On the bright side baby is happy and head down .and very active on my bladder I knew she was down I can feel it lol
I hope everyone elce is doing great .
have a great day everyone:)
