Hi all this evening I started getting pain in my left side of my ribs tummy area it was sharp like a stabbing pain also there was a few stabs on the right also went after a couple of minutes.
Just wondering if this is a sign of preeclampsia as my midwife and consultant told me to look out for pain in upper rid area but not sure if this is the what they ment!
I had midwife appointment yesterday and urine was fine baby seems happy enough moving about, don't really know what els im looking out for I have pulled my neck so that's hurting but don't think its connected.
I am currently 31+6 with a high BMI of 37 my consultant thinks my blood pressure could be better an needs monitoring every 2 weeks due to family history of it but midwife says my consultant is useless an blood pressure is fine it was fine at midwife appoinment yesterday and urine was I am assuming this pre eclampsia would of been picked up yesterday.

So is it just a random pregnancy pain or should i be concerned it was rather painful stabbing pain but soon stopped thanks in advance x

Hmmm. Could be either I think! If it gets worse if call maternity unit. Reassuring about results yesterday but it can change quickly.

I think if it's not constant it's more likely to be trapped wind or indigestion! Any headaches or blurred vision off to maternity unit.
