Possible pre eclampsia?

Hey, so just wondering if anyone has had anything similar but over the weekend I was in triage for reduced movements (I’m 34+3 weeks) and while I was there I mentioned a few symptoms so they thought I might have cholestasis so they checked my liver and a couple of the results came back quite elevated but not the one for cholestasis so they said that something else is going on with my liver. I had a consultant appointment on Monday and they took a urine sample and found protein in my urine and sent it to the lab and there’s no infection but elevated protein levels. They now want me to go in for repeat testing on Friday but my blood pressure has been okay so I don’t really know what to expect :/

They might just want to see if your levels have gone up/down and monitor as apparently it can be things you eat that can influence certain levels.

I was diagnosed with preeclampsia at 37 weeks. Only symptom I had was high levels of protein in urine - blood pressure was slightly elevated but nothing too crazy and was up and down

For me it was my kidneys that were the issue

Did you have any symptoms at all or did you just feel normal? I have just felt weird for about a week, and now my anxiety is so bad I almost want them to just deliver the baby so it doesn’t get any worse to the point it’s an emergency but I know they won’t do it as I’m not full term yet

GTT appointment

Hi all,

My NHS app has sent me through an appointment for a GTT appointment - I’m assuming this is the diabetes test which I was aware I would be getting.

I’m due to December, but the test is in September. Does this seem late to anyone? I would of thought I’d be tested earlier but just want to check

Failed 1 hour glucose test

Has anyone failed the 1 hour test only to pass the 3 hour? I only failed by 5 points! I am so frustrated and disappointed right now. Is there anything I should do to make my chances of passing better?

Update for the NIPT

So defeated. I posted yesterday about how it’s been almost two weeks since I did my NIPT testing without getting results. I called the lab today (Quest diagnostics) they said it was finalized days ago and that the lab wasn’t completed because there wasn’t enough fetal fraction in it. We just moved to a new area over the weekend and apparently my new OB does their own lab draws in office and they are only open the exact days and hours that my new job is. I don’t even know how to ask for time off to do it because I haven’t even told my new job I’m pregnant yet.

I guess this was more of a vent 🥲
