Hi all

Danielle - I'm really uncomfy and tired too

Angela - Yep, you can get the PP stuff online. Where abouts do you live?

Been having a few dramas here. I'm hot, uncomfy and I just want this next 8 weeks to be over and done with. Having blood pressure issues (stress related) and found out today that I have put 15kg on this pregnancy so I'm really not happy. Not much I can do about it - due to my PKU I have no choice but to keep pumping in the calorie supplements or risk an unhealthy, maybe even brain damaged baby. I'm really going to have my work cut out for me on losing the weight once she's here though

So yeah. The blood pressure isn't great. I had an appointment today and I completely freaked them out and they sent me straight up to fetal monitoring. By the time I got there my blood pressure had bottomed out and so they were very confused. They were expecting me to just collapse in a heap, not end up with blood pressure on the lower end of normal when it had been dangerously high less than 15 minutes earlier. So now I've had my blood pressure taken so many times today that I feel like my arm is about to drop off!

On the upside, bub is doing very well... measuring slightly ahead for dates, great heart rate, lots of movement and she's head down and ready to go
