Am 37 weeks and have been in hospital for 2 days, discharged yesterday with a suspected blood clot and infection in vein. Everytime they did a urine sample there was ketones in it. I ahve gestational diabetes which is well controlled so they said it was prob something to do with this, so let me go on condition i spoke to my diabetes nurse (who i cant get in touch with)
Anyway does anyone know why there would be ketones in urine if its not the diabetes - as one midwife seemed quite concerned about them and said they could harm the baby, however the midwife who discharged didnt seem bothered
