I know this can be a sign on pre-eclampsia but i've had this a couple times throughout pregnancy and been checked and been fine. Most recebtly I had it on Monday and it lasted about 5 mins. I was checked on Tuesday and my bp is fine and i've got no swelling or headaches.

I've had blurrred vision for about 10mins now, finding it hard to see the keyboard. It's affecting one eye worse than the other and it's if i've been looking at a brught light for too long and theres holes in my vision.

Woth phoning MW even though I was checked on Tuesday??

I'm otherwise fine. Lost my plug yesterday so hoping labour will start soon

Sorry if loads of typos - as I said I can't see very well!!

Def get checked. I am sure your mw will agree. Hope all is ok and best of luck for the imminent arrival Smile

Yes, definitely a case for calling the midwife.

It may be nothing, and lets hope so, but as you say, it can be a symptom of some serious things.

Always. Even if you've had it checked before. And BP may have come up since last check- PE can be quick to come on

Just back from hospital. Everything fine and doctor came to check my eyes which are fine - just a suspected pregnancy migraine!! And apparently baby's head is less engaged than it was on Tuesday Confused which is a bugger!!!
