When I went for my second sweep monday (1st the lady successfully done at 38 weeks.. but didnt work) my baby had gone up too high so wasnt done. She said do some exercise and encourage her back down on ball! Anyways yesterday night babies movements were extremely painful now my bump is even higher and really hard. I think she may of turned!

On top of that..

I've gone from low blood pressure at 38 weeks and being told I was anemic to now having high blood pressure, i never mentioned it to mw on Monday as I was just disappointed by the non sweep that it slipped my mind but this whole week I've been really ill not sick just generally unwell my stomach is sore, and I'm so lethargic I feel like I've been drugged constantly, i do get the occasionally headache but nothing paracetamol wont take away so I'm not thinking I have preeclampsia or anything.. but in all my pregnancies I've never felt so rubbish. My joints in my fingers hurt. I'm just so over this. Do you think I should go in to triage and just be checked out i dont want to waste anyones time.

And has anyone has there baby go up so high so close to due date? My back feels broken I'm so uncomfortable not to mention the heartburn which has returned with her being so high up

I'm 37 weeks tomorrow and the past couple of days I've noticed bump has got really high all of a sudden and really hard! Been slightly concerned but I have a MW app and scan today so will mention it then.

I just been to triage, said baby is head down and that the reason my stomache is hard is because I'm contracting. Probably braxton hicks and I'm more conscious of my bump without realising it but said keep and eye as I'm getting back pain too!

Regarding my blood pressure said still high but no protein so not worried little blood but said normal as body gets ready for labour and she thinks I just have some viral illness and too listen to my body if I need to sleep sleep!

Feel dilly going now 🙈

No advice but just wanted to say, I hear you! I am 38 weeks with fourth baby and so fed up and uncomfortable. Sending you strength x

I'm finding it really difficult this time round! Maybe because of the others and not getting as much rest as I could with previous pregnancies (or maybe it's because I'm older 😳). I just cant wait for this to be all over, who ever says they miss the bump need there heads testing! Good luck hope he/she doesnt keep you waiting too long x

Aww that's good. Never feel silly for going in though.
I've just got back from my scan and mw app and everything was fine and they said the same it's just the body getting ready for Labour. Got my csection booked for 2 weeks 6 days time! Can't wait!!

I'm glad everything went ok! Not long now for you, hope all goes well and baby continues to conform lol x
