Help!! I’m 36 weeks pregnant and broke my ankle 2 days ago. I'm really struggling both physically and mentally and looking for any help and information. At the moment walking on my crutches is nearly impossible as I can’t hold my own weight. I’m going back to the hospital tomorrow so should know if the need to operate or what the plan etc then. At the moment I am in so much pain and unfortunately I aren’t looking forward to giving birth t I really don’t know how it is going to work etc. Has anyone been in a similar situation? Any information is really appreciated. Thanks Daniella.

Can you borrow or rent a knee scooter. Makes such a difference in getting around when you can put weight on your foot

Make sure you talk to the doctor about appropriate pain relief as your options are limited being pregnant , but there is some things you can take that are better than paracetomol
