Hello, I was diagnosed with OC yesterday (I'm 36 weeks today) after experiencing persistent itching since Friday. I had monitoring yesterday plus further bloods taken today. Booked in for scan, more blood tests and further monitoring next Wednesday. Just wondered if anyone has recent experience of this condition? I have read through the information provided and from what I gather it's quite likely I will be induced at 37 weeks...?

Any advice or information would be much appreciated. Also I would encourage anyone with unexplained itching to contact midwife; I called up for advice on Saturday and was told not to worry as it wasn't only my hands and feet that were itchy. But when I mentioned it again at routine appointment yesterday I was sent straight to hospital for tests and diagnosed within a couple of hours. So always best to mention any concerns, no matter how small they may seem.
