Due April 2009: Episode 17 - We're off of work and ready to push, time for DH's to attend to that bush!!

like when you reach your absolute threshold when excercising

I think with anything over 120 I would go to the GP as it might be tachycardia. Do you feel dizzy, lightheaded or numb at all?

Springy - go get it checked sweetheart xx

They did investigate it, as I say. I had an ECG done (DH got to watch whilst a pretty female doctor prodded at my boobs to stick the things on - if only he'd been hooked up to a machine too ) & she listened to my chest & back with the stethoscope to hear my breathing & heart, & said that it sounded okay. Just fast. It was the last thing they checked before I was discharged, but seemed to think that it was fine.

I would be wanting a referral to a cardiologist, tbh. You don't want to find you have an undiagnosed heart defect whilst in labour. Rare but deadly.

no, but maybe yes, when i get them I feel 'strange' a little disconected for half a second... i did mention it to the mw yesterday... she thought it was my body getting ready for early labor...it does seem to be happening more and more lately...

yikes just had a look at some of those clothes, they are scarey.

Springsunshine: The ones I used were

healing and general soreness:
arnica
hypericum
calendula
bellis per
pulsatilla

chamomilla: to keep me feeling calm
kali phos: exhaustion from sleepless nights!

I use aconite now to try and help restless legs, helps a bit.

hope this helps.

I occasionally get waves of mild dizziness, or feel a bit light-headed, but it's not constant. It comes & goes. & I've had a strange thing a couple of times where my arms have felt heavy & almost numb (not just my left arm! Definitely both of them!), but nothing too alarming. & I also get a weird numbness below my boobs too, sometimes - the skin feels like it's been anaesthetised for a while, but I am (was?) fairly sure that it was just where he'd stretched it too far with his bottom sticking out?

Just lay down for 10 minutes and managed to grab 30 mins kip. Unheard of for me during the day. I just feel apalling

I use the witch hazel and gauze for after weeing. I just dab with it though and its fantastic.

Now to finish reading the rest which seems to be turning more sordid as usul

Thanks Carameli There's a fair bit you've used, then... I may invest

Poo forgot to buy arnica this morning.

I always picture Boff in robes anyway. More Uni style than the arab ones though.

Ask dr if it's anything to do with this condition

I wish I'd not mentioned it now - it's easier to bury my head in the sand

I have been known to wear academic gowns, yes. I have two sets.

You don't muck around with anything to do with the heart, Springy. Really.

Springy, it's like the brain. You always need to get proper attention for that as well.

I have too but my claim wasn't legit . Used to dress up in my Grandpas, think he might even rival you for boffin status.

Fiiiine. I'll make a GP appointment tomorrow & have a moan about my ever-increasing list of issues.

Agree with the Boffmeister 130 is too fast and you should get checked out. You coul;d do that via your gp though if you think they would take you more seriously than a mw

Ooh, it's Saturday tomorrow. Maybe I won't! I have a MW appointment on Tuesday though, so I'll bring it up then, I suppose.

Fine, maybe Monday. I just thought seeing as I already had an appointment... & yes, I do know that It's funny how attached to people you can get over the internet

Not maybe...definitely
