Raised Liver Function?

Anyone had or have raised liver function blood results? When I went for my growth scan last week midwife mentioned they were raised and checked with consultant who was happy to just keep an eye on them.
Had my normal weekly bloods again whilst I was there, assessment centre have called me this evening (no idea why it’s taken 6 days) & my results are still raised and more than what they were last week. Not majorly over, the cut off is 40, mine is 46.
They want me to have my bloods repeated tomorrow, I’ve been in today for my blood pressure check and no one mentioned it 🤦🏼‍♀️
I’ve asked if I can wait till Wednesday when I’m there again for my weekly bloods and they said that’s fine but I have to ring straight away if I get any pre-eclampsia type symptoms…my Bp was fine today,
I'm 33 weeks x

Yes a good few times but not during pregnancy. I am fit and healthy nothing wrong with me.. however have a history of when feeling like crap my liver blood results are raised.. to put into perspective my father is a heavy drinker and he got bloods done around same time as me once and mine were significantly higher than his, I was horrified. Long story short I’ve had a few liver scans and all is well. Basically consultant told me the liver is like a washing machine, washes out virus’s and so on and sorts it’s self out. You could be fighting something, don’t worry I’m sure you will be ok x
Congratulations on your pregnancy x

Mine were for both my pregnancies. Had weekly scans and blood tests twice a week from 14 weeks. Had both babies 4 weeks early. Still have scars on my legs and feet due to the itching from it all. Google obstetric cholestasis.

Not sure about when pregnant but my raised liver function turned out to be harmless Gilbert syndrome which is elevated bilirubin
