37+5 feeling spaced out and headache

Hello!

Looking for some advice really.

I'm 37+5 weeks and the last few days I've felt spaced out and had this headache that won't budge.

The headache isn't that bad in itself, just feeling a bit off. However I do have a slight cold too.

Wondering if this is something I should contact midwives about?

Just I've bothered them about a few things the past few weeks and don't want to waste time! Got my next appointment in two days so not sure if to wait.

Have you had your blood pressure checked recently? Might be an idea to give the midwife a call, they may be able to bring your appointment forward by a day. They'd prefer that youd call than not call.

100% call the midwife or GP to tell them about the headache, you need your blood pressure and urine checking to rule out pre eclampsia.

Thanks for the replies! I decided to call and they are getting me to pop in today to just check urine / BP.

They think it's fine as I'm a headache sufferer anyway. But I guess always best to check!
