Hi,

I've read your recent posts and know you're having a tough time

I would say emotional stress won't help when it comes to preterm labour. I think you should maybe talk to your MW/GP and explain all your stress, they may be able to prescribe something to calm you down a little bit, for both your sakes.

I know we all hate to take medication while pregnant, but i think you're having to carry soooo much on your shoulders right now, it might outway any minute risks.

Hope things improve for you soon hun, i wish there was more i could say or do xxx

Thanks hun...i did talk to my mw yesterday. I was in tears when she got here. Im crying now....and she didnt say much. My pb is up and down too and with me having a previous placental abruption and losing my baby bbecause of it im so worried about this baby. I dont know where to turn. My poor husband is stuck in the middle because his mother is being a real cow at the moment. Ive stopped smoking and ive suffered with really bad depression before where i went for counceling and with all the really bad news ive had she new about this and chose to get mad at me over something that wasnt ment for her at all. Apparently im evil.

Your not evil hun. Your one of the most strong women I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. This must be a very scary time for you after beautiful Bhodi grew wings. People need to realise that instead of making you feel bad.

I am so angry for you hun. Chin up sweetie little man is looking over both of you

yes probably because it causes physical reactions such as very high blood pressure.
you would have to be very emotionally distressed though.

You are far from evil hun, please ignore her She should appreciate how much you have gone through and are going through.

Maybe seeing your doctor would be a better option, your MW doesn't sound the most supportive woman You can't continue being so upset and worried, someone in the medical world really needs to help you.

At the last resort, go to A&E. I know it sounds radical...but at least that way you would see the 'top man' quickly....someone needs to listen!

I really am sending you and feel bad that i can't help you myself xxx
