Do I bother my midwife with this?

I’m 19+4 and the last few days I have felt pretty rough. I’ve got to hand in a sample to be tested for a UTI but aside from that I’m getting horrible headaches and periods of light headedness. I don’t feel like I’m going to pass out, just a bit like I’m walking in a dream and the world is slightly hazy. Should I call my midwife and see if my blood pressure has dropped?
Thought it would be a good idea to get my car valeted this morning. Now I’m stuck in town for another hour! Taken refuge in a cafe Smile

I think you should definitely contact your midwife. Hope she's able to reassure you.

Absolutely get an opinion from your MW or GP. 💐

Yes - always worth checking out anything like that. They would rather check you over and tell you you are ok than miss something. I had UTI during pregnancy and it was very painful and made me feel very strange. If you can't get to see midwife then try the gp or practice nurse.

Thanks for the advice Smile the midwife I spoke to said it could be normal. I have my anomaly scan on Friday so she said to go up to see them if I’m not feeling better by then. Hopefully should have the results of the urine test by then too. Pregnancy is fun, ay?? Grin
