Hello
I am 33 wks PG. Been ill for weeks and weeks with just a general cold/virus. I rang the hospital to talk to a MW as I had been feeling very dizzy and lightheaded and she said to get my MW to check my BP at nect appoint as I might have low BP which you canget in 3rd trimester. Also said to ask her to do FBC Bloods to check for anemia.
Anyway - had stupid horribl midwife who told me some stupid things like I won't be able to have my planned section if I go into labour etc ( I started a thread about this the other day ) Was so annoyed I forgot to insist on the blood and she said my BP was fine.
I checked my notes yesterday and it was 100/70. Normally my BP is 120/80 or occasionally 130/80.
I looked up the normal ranges on tinternet and it said Low BP is 90/60 but any significant change can be classed as low.
Any advice? Is this much of a drop?
I went really pale last night when I was just sat down and thought I was going to faint. I have also not put on any weight for 2 wks and have lost half a stone.
Any advice welcome
