Don't wont to worry, HELP...what do you think?

Hello everyone, I'm trying not to stress but I've started to google things & I am starting to stress myself out LOL.

I am just over 30wks pg & today have had severe chest pains, I had them about a week or so ago also. It was so painful I couldn't sit still. Today it's been on & off. I also just noticed today one of my ankels is very swollen (never a prob with first bub). Should I be worried about the chest pains? I hate going to the hosp to feel like I've wasted mine & their time.

I think you need to go to the hospital and get checked out. I had a similar thing when I was pregnant with DS. They never found out what it was, but I went into labour a day later. Good luck!

Also... I went to the hospital with various weird conditions during both pregnancies, none of which resulted in anything, but the midwives always said that they'd rather have me come in and get checked out and it be nothing, than stay at home for a few days and it be something and having something bad happen.

Maybe just call the midwives to see if it's anything to be concerned about. You never know it could be an indicator of something mre serious. I'd rather feel like a dill for calling them about some indigestion or something inane than ending up being seriously ill nand not calling cause I didn't want to bother them! Hope you feel better soon.
And OMG, 30 weeks already????? Where has that time gone!

I had severe pre eclampsia with DD, and although I told my GP on several ocassions about the pains I was having, she kept dismissing them (until I trusted my instincts and fronted to the hospital with a blood pressure of 200/140!). Sorry for the hi-jack!
If you're worried about pre eclampsia the pain would be (usually) tucked under the rib cage, in my case it was on the right side.

I would rather feel like a dill and get it checked out than risk anything more developing (if that so be the case)....

Thanks for the replies everyone...yes 30wks already eeeeeekkkk & DH is only just starting to paint the room needed.

Leesa, yes I googled a few things & am a little worried about PE. The swelling just came out of no where & I do suspect I may have a UTI. I'm due to see the doc on Tues, but may go to the hosp tomorrow is I get the pains again. Just worried me as the pain was horrible, right under my boobs & I could not concentrate. Also yesterday, for no reason I threw up several times for no reason at all. Hmmm, perhaps I should get checked out sooner than later.

Yep, under the right boob - that sent an alarm bell off in my head just as I read that...

I agree with you, sooner rather than later hun. Any dull pains in the forehead region or visual impairments??
