Hi Sarah,
Have been keeping up-to-date with your diary, am so glad you are going into hospital next week, you really need the rest and it sounds like you are ready for it too. Its good that your family are now finally seeing that you do really need the help and aren't just making it up!! It often takes a 'crisis' for family to realise this which is bad i know but at least now you are getting what you need. Hope everyting goes well for you next week.
Sarah.xxx

Hi guys,
Thanks for the reply sarah. Its nice to see you arent alone. I really am glad it is now semi-organised and that they seem to be a little more understanding. You ate right tho, sometimes crisis point is what it takes. Its sad really that it need be that way but I'm glad it seems to be heading in at least the right direction.
Yes WG will have online access. its slow and via some bizzare telephone system, which opens up to a key pad and dot type mouse in the back of the handset. Its not at all easy to work so I will keep in touch but it will be short responses as it crashes and loses your essay, it certainly feels like an essay when its taken you 20mins to write a short message, lol.
MW again this morning. That should set in track the plan for next week. I'm not wanting to go in till monday so I'm assuming I will need to see her monday to to get her to call them or even a doc to sign me in. I'll find out today. I dont feel like I can go on any longer as it is. I'm so tired and so sore that I feel about ready to break. I am preactically in tears by the end of every night i cant go on like this. It really is too sore, I need the rest. I feel like a wimp saying this, imagine not even being able to get thro preg. But I just cant now. I'm really ready for it to be out!
A few last min things to sort out and I'm organised I think. Pack my bag properly - its all there just not packed Baby bag Contact list for house wall incase anyone needs someone Emergency bag for the boys Clean bed for MIL staying in stevens bed (hes going in with his dad) Stock up on essentials
Thats it really, after this weekend I will be, hopefully, organised. God thats not like me, I'm never organised lol
Better get going, I'm not dressed yet and havent eaten and toddlers starts at 9.15!

Emergency bag lol - by that I meant a bag for a nights stay for the kids with pj's, nappies, vests and a change of clothes incase we need to go somewhere in a hurry and I can just grab the bag and not need to worry about looking stuff out. See sometimes i am intelligent!!
And nope you arent suposed to take the likes of your DS in as its classes as high risk. mines not working too well anyway, but I could borrow my little bros one. Hmm good idea!
Its taken rather an age for me to ge round to this diary but better late then never!
Yests MW app was somthing to be desired. It took 1hr and 30mins, instead of 15mins! It was another lady from normal, she didnt know me so took a bit extra finding out history etc. Then my BP was a little up, then protein in my urine, swollen ankles as norm. Then she asked if i was getting headaches and i said yes the past few days, not really sore just a background headache, and I mentioned that I was having blurry vision. She then said, oh, really, any pains in ure upper abdomen, and I said yes, its getting worse, just below my ribs, it must be the baby really kicking. Its really sore geting.
Of course that caused, full alarm, blood tests out and 101 qu's all over again. Apparently the signs of PET (pre-eclampsia). I wasnt really thinking that way to be honest I put it down to low blood. But she needed blood tests taken up by taxi to hosp so we could have results that night. The wanted me in there and then and I said no way, what do i do take the kids with me! I was thinking well if I'm in mon anyway then whats the rush. Apparently it can get bad quickly, without much warning. So needed me at least checked. After taking with my hosp consultant they finally agreed that it be ok for me to stay at home, providing the bloods come back normal, and them check me daily. She finally let me home, the kids were running high. She phoned to say she'd be in to check at 5ish. BP was a little lower but there was more protein in my urine. They called late on to say Blood results were normal so happy for me to be home till monday with daily call outs.
Today was better, legs were less swollen, I'd been walking about a little which helped. BP a bit higher but urine clear. can never get it right can I. She suggested it be mild PET and not a real issue but, the woman who came last nite accidently took my notes home so she had very little to work with. She is going to try to locate them b4 coming round 2moro. If not she will get them to my clinic for me to collect b4 going to hosp monday.
I'm knackered. I'm getting progressively more and more tired and sorer as it goes on. Will actually welcome the rest when i need to go in. I'm getting to the stage when the kids just being naughty, not even bad, gets me down and i shout. All that does is put my BP up too. Its a vicious circle!
Off to bed guys, back killing me again, lol.
Thanks again for the replies its nice to know i'm not alone!
xx

Well I've to stay till sat, when they hopefully let me home. If all is ok I'm told.
My pulse is dropping but have developed terrible headache. Always hav a dull one but this am was very sore. Also feel really sick. Bn forcing myself to eat to c if it makes me feel better. All I need is for this to go pear shaped and I have to stay longer. I hope not, the rest is good and I'm starting to feel better of it, but its boring and I'd really like home to start getting my natural induction going. They say now the baby is settled looking at induction at 39wks instead of 37. So if I can get it going at weekend could be moving along by 38. Time to b ready for it but not having to put up any longer than need be. Thats the plan anyway. Prob wont work out lol.
Still got sick woman across from me. Shes annoying me now but looks to b going 2moro so if I do need to stay at least she'll be gone. Girl in nxt bed really nice but shes going to b induced later today. Just awaiting space on ward, poor thing. Another indian woman (or something with a head scarf) she snores very loudly, and doesnt talk to us either. So I'm going to b bored 2moro!
Think the kids r coming in 2nite. Looking forwards to that. I miss them. Think OH is going to bring my dog in the car, she is missing me. He says she wont stop squeaking the whole time. Shes annoying him, hes not got much patience at the best of times lol.
Might go for a wander down the hall. I'm bored!
