Mum of 1 bouncy superhero
KKH 37+2 weeks
Exhausted really. I’m so close to birth. Today I woke up extremely different. I was extra tired, extra in pain, im talking about migraine, blurred vision, nausea, loss of balance, rib pains, my legs & arms, sometimes i feel like they weren’t there. I went over to KKH because ^^ it’s too much. No i didn’t head over thinking it was time for labor or anything i just wanted the pain checked out. I arrived to the urgent o&g, this is after they failed to pick up my called 3 times because idw waste my time coming down should it be ‘ normal ‘, told them briefly what was up, they brought me to the delivery suite, checked me for cervix dilation & all. Which was weird as i didn’t mention anything about labor. On 3 occasions i tried speaking to the nurse who bought me up, the counter nurse & the nurse who attended to me that I’m here for my pains & not for birth. Two sorta ignored me & asked for my details instead, 1 listened but told me to wait for the doctor. So then the doctor came, did the cervix check, so again i tried telling him what I was here for but instead was ‘ scolded ‘ for technically giving them the wrong impression that I was going into labor. He then just told me he’ll see me in my next appointment. Then i was sent to the counter for payment. So now I just got home, still in pain, still the same score pain of 8/10, probably thinking if I should head to NUH tonight should the pain persists. Would it be too late? Is my baby dying hence the pain? I don’t even know & im way too numb emotionally right now cause I’m just so tired.
working mummies help
this is my 2nd pregnancy & its SO MUCH HARDER. my first born was a breeze & it makes me feel like a first time mum on my current pregnancy. but anyways, im at week 27 & it has been a drag with the aches, nausea & reflux. my job enables me to actually work from home but it seems so hard to explain to my boss ( male ) that its a drag to commute to the office & back. do hospitals write memos for this?
