Poorly with mumflu

I'm nearly 38 weeks and have a stinking cold/cough. I feel rough but not totally rotten ... but obviously some of the symptoms of being unwell are the same as the warning signs for pre-eclampsia (which I am totally, unreasonably paranoid about). Like headaches, generally unwell etc. I'm assuming that if you do get PE that it is bloody obvious because you feel properly ill?! I definitely don't have migraines, rib pain or sickness so I think I'm alright but at that stage when I'm liable to get into a stew!

This is my 2nd so won't have a scheduled mat visit until 40 weeks.

If you're concerned, there's no harm in making a GP appointment or calling your midwife. Better to put your mind at rest and relax.
