tell them your pg think your losing baby can you be let out for hour or two will make up the time please call the EPU at the least better safe than sorry

Oh honey, is work really so important you have to let your health and that of your baby suffer? I'm sure they would understand if you told them you were pregnant and in pain. You should get it checked out.

Having said that, at about 16-20 weeks I got a lot of round ligament pains which felt crampy and stabby in my pelvic area. I was worried for a while but everything was fine.

Please get it checked out though, if only for peace of mind. Best of luck. x

doughnuts · 28/06/2007 14:36

please at least call them have you got your mw no so you can call her she might come out to you!

harleyd · 28/06/2007 14:40

surely there is somebody that could take you or collect you? you really should go and get checked out. hope everything is ok x

bananabump · 28/06/2007 14:51

Do you finish work at 5pm? if so get your lift home, then call the antenatal unit. If you can't get there they may be able to send someone to get you, or send a midwife out to check you.

You need to get checked out, we can't tell you everything's ok, they will probably need to examine you or at least listen to the baby's heartbeat etc

wishingfourgotone · 28/06/2007 14:54

if you call antenatal now then they will be able to advise you dont forget to tell them you got no transport

twoplusone · 28/06/2007 15:06

oh hUnny please go and get yourself checked out..xxxxx

VP · 28/06/2007 15:39

Yes, agree with everyone please look after yourself and leave work

Mumpbump · 28/06/2007 15:41

It might be a stomach bug/UTI or anything so don't panic, but DO go and get checked out. Either go to an EPU - think they'll still take you - or to an A&E. If you go to A&E, they will only scan you during the day if my local hospital is anything to go by, so make sure you get there asap.

Mumpbump · 28/06/2007 15:43

Is there not anyone else who can come and get you from the hospital later?

Mumpbump · 28/06/2007 16:17

Hope the silence means that you've taken yourself off to get checked out... Let us know how you get on.

How are you now, Mother2be? Hope you're feeling better and it was a false alarm.

hi, thanks for your messages,i haven't had a chance to reply becasue i can only use the internet at work,
i got taken to hospital on thurs (by ambulance) my stomach pains were just too much, and they listened to the babys heartbeat but didnt know what the pains were, wasnt to do with baby though, and then on sat my parents took me to the hospital again because my stomach pains were unbearable alongside the worst head ache which i had ever had(which turned out to be a migraine) and even though we still dont know what the pains were they have pretty much gone now all except the odd twinge, which i can cope with.

thanks agian for your thoughts

thats good news, i presume they tested for pre-eclampsia?

missyhols · 03/07/2007 08:27

Glad your ok now. I was in hospital a few times with dd1 around same wks as you. Same happened this time but each time they looked at me like a weirdo as they couldn't work it out either. Lol. I found 4head really good when my headaches got bad as i tried avoiding the co codamol i was given.

twoplusone · 03/07/2007 08:43

Glad you and the babs are ok now hun.

Just take care of yourself.x
