    blood in urine ..

    me again !

    after I did the self urine test @ my hospital appointment today I noticed that one of the test strips indicated I had some blood in my urine :eek: !
    I told the midwife but she seemed to think it was normal as long as I didnt have any burning sensation while I went to the toilet etc.
    is it normal ?? Im 39 weeks tomorrow
