This is gross, I'm really really sorry

[Pickles77]

Okay, here goes, I'm 35 + 4. Im on anti sickness tablets & am on antibiotics for a UTI.

Today though baby head feels very low, and upright. Normally sits to the right.
Tonight I feel funny down there, like my bladder is constantly open. Throbbing almost.

Here I am!!!! Hmmm that sounds suspicious! Put a pad on, keep an eye on the fetal movements & your temperature. If your temp goes up or not happy with the movements or any hint of contractions phone triage back & go in. In the morning go & see your GP. A urinary tract infection is a classic cause of prem labour so keep an eye on it. I've never heard of someone weeing constantly though so I'm still a bit suspicious of waters breaking. By the way we don't sniff sanitary pads - we use something called an amnistick - wee & amniotic fluid have different pHs!!

Thank you everyone, baby kicking away as usual. Had a bit of sleep so feeling a bit better

Hope you continue to feel better Pickles. I well remember the lack of sleep of late pregnancy. I'm up but working for a while,I'll check back to see if you've updated ina little while.

Good luck and I hope you get some sleep tonight

Pickles how are you today?

Hi, I feel better for some sleep but feel really uncomfy still. Off to the GP hopefully when they open

If in any doubt phone Triage again. Hope you're ok today.

Thank you midwife, spoke to them about 8 they think it's def a UTI so I have the doctors at half 9. They have a facility to test immediately and my MW will be at premises too. so going to see her too

Hope you are feeling better xx

I must be the only person in the world to have a lovely GP receptionist

Baby kicking away as normal too

I have been having something similar (I'm 34 weeks) over the past few weeks, though not as severe. Some days, the baby (I presume its head!) feels like a medicine ball weighing down on my pelvic floor if I spend any length of time standing up or walking; so I end up clenching my pelvic floor muscles trying not to leak wee! I wear pantyliners most of the time now and some days there are a few drips - and this is with having done my pelvic floor exercsies pretty religiously since about 14 weeks.

Hope you get sorted out, I've found this a bit distressing so I can imagine you have too. Here's a and for you!

Dropped a urine sample in the doctors about a hour ago. Got told to ring for results at half two they've just left a panicky voicemail on my phone whilst I was at counsilling telling me to go into doctors ASAP.
I'm really scared

Take care of yourself, we are thinking of you xxx

Is there someone who can go with you?
