Bold will get you nowhere and patience is a virtue.

aww congratulations

how WONDERFUL, hub, congratulations, can't wait to see the no doubt stunning photos.

i had high bp as well after (and before) dd2. dunno if dee is trying to bf but i find labetalol kills my supply and makes me feel ropey. am on nifedipine and ramipril combo, seems to be doing the trick. bummed for you that the baby was taken back in, hope it's the last time until she has her own children.

nifedipine and labetalol this end. They make her feel crap, but we are bottle feeding, so at least the feeding is fairly straightforward...

oh that's good. i HATE labetalol, hub, it makes me feel dreadful. there are SO many better drugs for high bp imo and ime.

if the maternity hospital has prescribed them they simply will not have any experience of anything other than nif and lab, it was amazing. i had to beg for ramipril, and only got it cos my bp consultant is married to my gp so i was able to lobby him for it via the breakfast table.

so yes, where was i? yes, the maternity hospital, ask them about other drugs and they will eventually admit that they don't have much experience with post-eclampsia type stuff (not sure if that's the right term) and in fact they'd rather you bugger off the minute you've had the baby. if she's on labetalol they're treating her with a 70 year old drug.

Many congratulations to you all Hub. Hope Dee is feeling better.

Are we allowed to know your new dd's name?

Congratulations! Haven't 'seen' you around for a while - this explains it I suppose.

Congratulations Hub . Hope Dee is feeling better soon.

Will you post DD2's name?

well done!

Wee bump

congratulations h2d! please give my best to dee xx
