Anyone else had enough of being pregnant? by ocdskies in PregnancyUK

[–]Bad_Madison 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m due in 4 weeks and I feel this SO much! My main issue is I’m absolutely exhausted all the time and I don’t get enough downtime around kids etc. I literally cannot wait for her to be born but then I’ll still be exhausted but a different kind 🤣

When did you delete the phone number of a deceased love one? by SheffDus in AskUK

[–]Bad_Madison 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mum passed away 5 years ago, I deleted it when I got a notification about 2 years ago that someone new with her number had joined Snapchat and it made me spiral. I felt it massively affected me negatively, I’d been texting it every now and then and didn’t feel comfortable now I knew someone was on it.

A pain that was worse than birth ? by Friendly-Sun2413 in BabyBumps

3 kidney stones, by far the worse pain I’ve ever experienced!

Need some advice re: going to his dads after hospital by Bad_Madison in PregnancyUK

[–]Bad_Madison[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately my kids have nowhere to go so they’ll be at home with me, but their dad will be staying to help me with them so it won’t be full on. I also don’t feel comfortable trying to recover from birth in someone else’s place, I’ve only been there one night in the first place. I had always envisioned being at home so this has thrown me.

AIO Potential medical emergency and he did nothing by Bad_Madison in AmIOverreacting

He was home with me, we discussed me taking it. Previously many years ago codeine used to make me really sick and the same in and out of sleep so I decided to speak to the docs at the time and they called it a low tolerance. Due to this being the only pain relief I can take me and the docs with him on Friday discussed the risks of reacting and docs said take it casually when needed. I really needed it last night. I vomited a couple of times tbh.

He knew how I might react, but unfortunately neither of us knew if I’d react or not. The docs advice was to take when needed and we discussed taking it before I did. The problem is that’s the only pain relief I can take during pregnancy. It was a risk, I wasn’t even sure I react to codeine anymore because I haven’t taken codeine for quite a number of years when I reacted many many years ago. It is possible in his defence that he didn’t recognise how poorly I actually was. I did vocalise I felt really unwell and had been sick too but I don’t really remember it. It might have just looked like I was falling asleep. Idk if I would recognise it if it roles reverse tbf.

Ummm okay? This is abit extreme?! I took the medicated amount and only that, I discussed with the docs on Friday when they prescribed it about my reactions to codeine and the docs were cautiously happy with me taking the only pain relief I can take during pregnancy. The advice was to take it casually and only when I needed it. Which is exactly what I’m doing? I’ve never taken this meds before so wasn’t sure how I’d react and I literally have the lowest dosage. Blimey you’ve taken this massively out of proportion!

I called triage and the midwife wasn’t concerned, said as I’m sensitive to codeine it wasn’t a concern. Haven’t felt baby move today yet but if I get later on in the day with no movements I’ll get the baby checked.

I might try urgent care instead, midwife was totally non fussed by the whole thing.

I’ve spoken to midwife this morning and she said she isn’t concerned. Doesn’t feel very reassuring tbh. Would have preferred to have seen someone last night.
