Hi girls - sorry ive been MIA.
Had a pretty rotten week last week with specialists and scans. Unfortunately my kidney problem has become really serious and i need to have a little operation on Tuesday. They need to insert a stent from my kidney, down thru my utera and into my bladder in the hope that it will start to drain and the fluid/swelling will go down. It will then have to be removed with another op a few wks after bub arrives. My urologist said that if we dont do it, i could seriously be looking at permanent kidney damageTHe op is apparently quite straight forward but i have to have a general anesthetic so im sooo worried about bub! THey have assured me that its perfectly safe and bub will be closely monitored and i dont need to be under for very long but im still so worried for my little one

My ob is very happy with the urologist decision to do the stent cause if he didnt my ob said he would have to deliver bub urgently to protect the kidney and so they are now hoping to get me to 37-38wks which is much much better for bub b4 inducing/Caesar so fingers crossed the stress of this doesnt send me into early labour!!
Anyway as i said, its happening on Tuesday, hopefully i can come home that night but will possibly need to stay depending on how i feel i guess. Ill keep you all posted!
JUst so annoyed to get so close and this silly kidney conks out on me now!! I just need to focus on the fact that this precious little bub will be in our in just a few little weeks
Sorry no persies, im feeling a little blueI havent read over the last few pages so im really sorry if i have missed anything big.
