I feel like poo. Everything was going fine, now I feel like I'm crashing
I have to take it super easy, so to make sure that I don't go into early labor, and to top it all off, my legs, feet and arms are itching sooo bad that I can't sleep anymore. Its driving me nuts!!! I have been reading up on Obstetric cholestosis, and I'm hoping that it's not the case. Don't really know how to go about asking MW either, since I called the nurse today, and she didn't really seem too concerned. I would rather have the test to make sure, but really don't think that they will consider it. I guess its something that is usually overlooked, seeing as itching is common during pregnancy and all, but mine has just started recently.

I just don't know what to do anymore

awww bless ya!!

If i were you i'd insist on the test, even if it is just for your peace of mind. With everything else you've got going on you don't need the extra worry with this as well.

Hope you are able to enjoy everything again soon *fingers crossed*

I completely agree with Lulu, you need to get the test done just in case. Especially if you're itching that badly. Trust your instincts hon! I hope everything is alright. Please call them back and tell them that you think its serious and would like to get it checked out. Even if it is nothing, at least you'll feel better and you won't feel stressed

id also insist on being tested, say u cant sleep through worrying. i mean i know they hear things like this happenening every day and sometimes there something of nothing but dont these nurses realise that we sit at home worried sick. surely they have kids themselves because they seem like know it all's who have no experience actually being pregnant. they must have all had perfect pregnancys x

I'm definately going to bring it up at my appointment. The reason I can't sleep is not just because of worrying, it's the itching. I really think I'm going to peel my skin off. It's absolutely horrible

when is your appointment x

Thursday. I called them today, and they never called back

If it continues like this tonight, I'm going to give them another call first thing in the morning.

id just turn up at the hospital, how rude is that not to even call you back, just out of curiosity (sorry about spelling) do u have to pay to give birth etc in the usa xxx

I believe so...but I have medicaid, so I don't need to pay, which is a good thing. You guys don't need to pay over there???

I'd go the hospital aswell if thats how your being treated, no we get free pregnancy care on the NHS
