I've just got back from my MW checkup (36 weeks). Blood pressure had jumped from excellent to very high (160/100) since last time and there was a little bit of protein in the urine. I've also felt pretty rotten over the last week but just thought it was normal at this stage. The midwife has booked me in at the hospital at 9.00 am tomorrow for further testing.
So I'm feeling a little bit scared and teary, in addition to the generally rotten feeling. This isn't helped by the fact that my husband is away at the moment (8 hours away), due back on Saturday. He's at an extremely important meeting which will secure funding, and therefore his job, for the next few years. If he needs to be here, I know he'll be here whatever the consequences, but I don't know if he needs to be here or not.
What should I do?
