I am 35 yrs old 30wk and 5 days with my first baby and this is the first time I have written anything on a group board but I am gradually finding it more and more difficult to stay upbeat. I am over the moon that I am pregnant and genuinely would not change it for the world, it just seems like I am literally being diagnosed with every possible pregnancy symptom going. My blood pressure was high from my first appointment so that has been monitored, at 26 wks I was diagnosed with GD and have had to go on medication, I then discovered I have carpal tunnel so have splints to wear at night, my blood pressure has got worse the last week or so and I have been monitored at hospital several times but as my bloods are all ok and nothing in urine they just send me home again when it goes down. I have had hip and pelvis problems and have been referred to physio. Over the last week I have started struggling to move my ring finger on my right hand and some days can't even hold a pen properly, I had been putting it down to the CT and tried to ignore it but the pain got that bad I got in touch with my occupational therapist who today advised me that it is trigger finger!! I had never even heard of this. It feels like just as I come to terms with one thing I am hit with another. I don't like to talk about it to other people as sometimes I worry they will think I am moaning or being a hypochondriac. Everytime I feel a little kick or movement it reminds me why I am going through all this. It's just some days I feel like all I want to do is cry. Is anyone else suffering with a catalogue of problems. It feels good to write down how I am feeling as I have tried to be positive for the baby, my so has been amazing but I think sometimes it is hard on him too as I have been so emotional with everything going on and even though he listens it is not the same as talking to someone who is going through a similar experience. I have also been told I will not go past 38 wks and potentially will have to have a planned c-section.
