Am nearly 34 Weeks pregnant and leaking some kind of fluids down below. Not a huge amount but enough to be noticeable and has been going on several days now.
Called labour ward when it first happened and they said sounds like an infection so get doc to swab asap. If the test results are clear I need to go labour ward asap for monitoRing as could be leaking amniotic fluid.
This was Wed, went docs straight away. Urine test done there and then showed protein and white blood cells which are signs off infection. Second urine sample and vaginal swab was sent off. Doc said results will be back Thurs am.
It's now Monday and still no results. Have phoned the surgery 3 times now and they say there not back. The receptionist answered "how long is a piece of string" when I asked when they would be back.
This isn't good enough is it. I know it isn't there fault but I explained the urgency and they don't really seem to care.
Best case senerio is I have an infection but the midwife says without antibiotics it could spread to baby and / or cause early labour.
Worst case senerio is my waters are leaking and baby is at risk of infection and I need monitoring / inducing.
Baby is measuring very small so the longer she stays put the better.
It's now been 6 days since this all became apparent and I am so worried about the risk my baby has and the fact I am basically bring left hanging on with no treatment offered.
The doctor don't seem to understand the importance of this, the receptionist is rude and unhelpful and the midwife is putting the fear of God into me saying they need the results but can't help me get them.
What the hell do I do, feel very abandoned by them all.
