I had my 34 week midwife appointment this morning and got some not very good news! my bloodpressure is up 130/95 so i have been ordered to go to the midwife drop-in clinic on friday and i've been booked in for another midwife appointment as well on tuesday... if it goes over ??/100 i will have to have bloodtests done. good thing is there is no protein in my urine but my midwife seemed pretty concerned with my high bloodpressure.
Has any of you ladies experienced high bloodpressure in pregnancy??
Checking in for Ingelwood......
Sunset hope your bp goes down...never experienced that..You getting excited its almost time!!! YAY
im just checking in for inglewood too, got butterflys! x
Sat in the carpark waiting for ds 2 thought i would check in x hope scan went well inglewood x
sunset sorry your bp high never had high bp try and rest if you can tx it goes down
How are you feeling today Deaks?
Feeling ok, got another appointmewnt at doctors tomorrow to see if anything other than steroids can be prescribed for my psoriasis. Noone i know rates steroids becuase once they stopped using them, the skin problem came back including ds1's excema. Plus it says on the info sheet that came with the meds that it shouldnt be used on more than 30% of the body which is tricky seeing as im covered in it. It also says it shouldnt be used for guttate psoriasis which is the type i have, i guess because it is such a wide spread rash. So... lets hope they find something more suitable and swaying friendly ;)
How are you lavender?
Deaks~ I have psoriasis. I get it on my elbows. My dermatolotgist prescribes a lotion and a spray. One in am one in pm. For two weeks then used only on weekends. Gonna run to my bathroom and get them- OK lotion is Vectical and spray is called Clobex. It works AMAZING. Once I got preggo though Doc took me right off. The annoying part is the Vectical is thick like Vaseline- I have to watch my elbows on furniture. Don't know if available where you are- I'm in US. Cleared it up in a matter of days. Stuff is amazing.
I have never had high BP either sunset so sorry can't help, have you googled it to try and find out abit more? I hope they tell you more at your next app x
It's my DS1 8th bday today....can't believe he's 8!! Doesn't seem like 5 mins since he was a baby, I love thinking about when he was born, it was an amazing birth :)
It's approaching the anniversary of DH's mum passing away, she died on 21st Dec last year. Can't believe she's been gone a year!! I work for a photographer so I'm putting together a storybook album of her life...it's taking me ages!! But hopefully will be worth it :)
Just saw you said its everywhere. Maybe lotion/spray can be used in worst spots. You must be so uncomfortable. I scratch the life out of my elbows..can't imagine it all over. (hug)
still patiently waiting inglewood lol
Refresh.......
I hope tomorrows Doctors appointment goes well. And they can prescribe you something along the lines of what HopeandDreamG has as that sounds really good!
I'm goo thanks. Just gearing up for my sway. We'll the rephresh worked but my PH looks to be about 5 now not in the 4 region two days later so think I'm going to have to use it about 6-12 hours before my attempt for it to be really effective.
People use lime which has a much lower PH and still manage to get pregnant. So just have to hope a girl sperm battles through. I think i'd rather the conditions be too harsh and not get pregnant than having a higher ph and getting pregnant. Because I'd have 12 weeks where I would be convinced it was a boy!
What will you be using for your sway?
HopeandDreamG - Did AF show? How close to your attempt did you use rePHresh. How were your bloods? Sorry for the 20 questions! :)
Happy 8th Birthday to your son Babymad, i know exactly how you feel. Ds1 is 8 on the 21st Dec, just can't believe 8 years have flown by so quickly!!
Putting together a photo album sounds like such a wonderful gift x
Lavenderlime i used neat lime and replens GOD knows how i got pregnant I am pretty shocked even now x FX for your attempt
babymad - your album sounds lovely such a personal thing to do x happy birthday to your ds too x
inglewood - i hope you are ok x x
Sunset I've had full blown pre eclampsia before so ask away.
Sunset my son is eight too! He was the one I had pe with so mixed feelings on his birth, hardly how I imagined it to be. My dad died six weeks before he was born, never met his first grandchild. That pain is as raw as it was the day he died. Hugs x
HUGS maybe how sad :( bet he is watching over you and your gorgeous boys x
I hope you're ok Inglewood, update us when you can! xx
OMG My heart is racing..just came to check on you Inglewood!!
Inglewood ~ Hope you're ok hun! eagerly awaiting your update! xx
This is how I feel, if pregnant Ill believe its a boy and not have that 'possibly girl' excitment. I used replens about 3 hours before dtd this month but feel it was a boy month so wont mind if a bfn.
If it is a negative this month then I am going to do everything to sway girl next month. Although did the diet alot and still didnt lower PH so going to do some research.
Bit worried now that Inglewood hasnt been on, just hope she is busy or internet is down and scan went well,Im always a worrier!
Thanks ladies. I've tried to google it but there's not really much information out there on high blood pressure in pregnancy. I don't have pre eclampsia yet and hopefully it won't develope into that but i guess i'll know more after i've been for my next to midwife appointments this week. Hopefully my bloodpressure will behave and not climb anymore, preferably even go down lol
Babymad ~ what a lovely gift for your dh! i love that idea! and congrats to your ds!!! :D
Maybebaby ~ How did it all start? just high bloodpressure or both high bloodpressure and protein in the urine? and what kind of birth did you have? c-section or induced vaginal?? I've never had high blood pressure before, but i cant say i was surprised today considering how much swelling i've had since 22 weeks.
I too am sorry to hear about your dad, so sad! but i bet he's looking over you from above!
Deaks ~ fx your doctor can give you something a bit more appropriate for the rash!
Lavenderlime ~ sounds like you're all sorted and ready for your attempt! good luck!!!
hello to everyone else, sorry i will make sure to catch up more properly on your posts later, just busy cooking dinner at the moment x
me three - keep coming on to check x
I was induced at 37 weeks. I had swelling and put on two stone in week. Thought that was normal ( what a idiot!) went for routine midwife check my bp was 145/90 and I was admitted straight to hospital where my bp went mad! Was there for a week, went home for a few days then re-admitted. Hopefully the protein will go. You can have pe for weeks before they deliver but unfortunately it only gets worse never better with time. I hope you don't develope it, but it isn't always that bad. My bp went to 195/165 ish and at no point did I ever feel I'll.
What time was Inglewoods scan? Was she going to update straight after?
Maybe we should all have a phone buddy to txt so we can update for us in case we cant ever get online and also if we need a quick answer to a ttc question and cant get online?
Can't believe the phone didn't work!!! kept logging me out and refreshing the page.....So sorry, was so frustrating trying to log on!
Well........ OMG!!! TWIN GIRLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! X
omg, that is just so amazing, only mums who are swaying for girls will totally get how amazing that is, well done and huge congratulations xx
Omg congrats that is amazing news :) yay sooooo excited for u! Xxx
