Where are my hypertension friends?

This waiting game of monitoring at home is so stressful. Is my BP high because I’m stressed about taking it? Is a normal pregnancy headache or hypertension headache? Did i just see a flashing spot or am I imagining it? Indigestion or upper right quadrant pain? This is all so hard… I’m thankful they’re having me come in weekly for labs and twice weekly for NST to monitor both me and baby for pre eclampsia (not diagnosed yet… just hypertension) but this is all just a lot 😞

27 weeks!

It’s funny how you can go one day feeling absolutely fine and the next absolute dog sh*t.
My second trimester has been pretty much easy going thank god but today damnnn, I’m really out of breathe, I’m having heart flutters, I’m dizzy I feel sick all day.
I normally go to the gym but could not make it today.
Please tell me this is normal as I suffer from anxiety and panic attacks and the struggle to breathe sometimes is triggering.

Anyone else?

34+5 and the pregnancy rage is REAL. Never had this with my first two pregnancies at all and they were boys so wondering if this wee surprise is a girl lol 🥴🙈

Second pregnancy

15 weeks today and had my first midwife appointment next one will be in a month. This pregnancy has been really hard on me I can barely walk or stand for long and generally feel like sh*t and have been vomiting and everything just makes me gag. Is anyone going through the same?

First period post baby 😭😭

Anyone else feel like their first period after baby is the most horrific period they’ve ever had?
I had my daughter towards the end of October and have had 10-11 bouts of cramps and back pain, but no period. But Tuesday evening everything kicked off and it’s like early labour pains 😭💀 .. it’s ridiculously heavy as well, but I heard that this can happen when you have the coil put in as well..

Feel sorry for myself, but having two kids leaves little time for that 😂😅

Beta test at 11dp5dtp

How quick do you get results back? Due to test tomorrow and if positive go for a beta test around 11am. Bit anxious on whether I would hear back before the long weekend! Its a private ivf clinic, not via NHS...

High?

I’m on high risk of preeclampsia, I’m 36+5 and my blood pressure since yesterday night is 120-90, is the diastolic a little bit high? I had trace of proteine in my urine last time at the midwife and my albumin is very low so I’m starting to be worried about that
