Not sure why I'm posting but don't know what to do with myself!

I feel hot, I can't sit still, I can't concentrate- just don't know what to do with myself as I don't feel 'right'. But can't really explain why

I'm in work and just want to go home!!

Just had lunch and I've drunk loads today so I don't think I'm hungry or dehydrated.

Any ideas how I can snap out of this? I've been like it for an hour now!!

A good month ago now I think. I'm currently sat in the stair well trying to pull myself together !

Go home, and ring your GP/MW and ask them to check you over quickly, don't ignore even something as vague as not feeling right, my MW has drummed this into me, she puts a lot of store in instinct.

Hope you are feeling a lot better soon!

Agreed. Worst case, you're fine and have missed an afternoon at work - no loss really!

KatieLily12 · 08/05/2013 15:12

I'd say this was a sick day. Go get checked. I felt this way with a UTI. Easily fixed but do it ASAP and don't ignore.

Go put your feet up and call midwife/ GP x

Thank you! Just had another pint of water. Have come clean with my (all male) colleagues and have window wide open!
I have also felt like this with a uti- will try and get the bus home as DH has taken the car.

Yes - please get checked. I had a UTI when pg with ds2 and it made me feel "not right" but I didn't know that's what is was and carried on as normal ignoring the weird feeling I had for days. The UTI got worse and ended up aggravating the womb lining and caused ds2 to arrive early.

Hope you're ok OP.

TippiShagpile · 08/05/2013 15:20

Sorry OP - just read that back. I didn't mean to scare you!

I'm sure you'll be fine and you're definitely doing the right thing getting yourself checked.

KatieLily12 · 08/05/2013 15:24

Yes. I wasn't going to mention our early arrival too!

Please go get checked

Dr is going to give me a call! I have to wait for DH to finish as I have no bus money and he has taken my car keys with house keys!!

Oh I hope you're all settled home now!

No uti but dr thinks I have the signs of an infection somewhere. So I have anti biotics! She said if I still feel unsettled to ring the maternity unit. Baby heart rate was fine. Thanks for all of your replies.
