Keep an eye on that headache, it probably is just a headache but could be pre-eclampsia (www.nhs.uk/conditions/pre-eclampsia/symptoms/)

Pregnancy is awful, try and put your feet up. Not too long now

Ring MAU these can be symptoms of pre eclampsia

The end of pregnancy can be hard, try to rest as much as you can although it's definitely easier said than done!

As above though, I would get your headache checked out as it can be a sign of pre-eclampsia. Hopefully it's nothing but if it's persistent it's better to be safe than sorry!

I have just rung the midwife and told them
the symptoms I'm having. Waiting on them for phone me back.
