its all happening next week

I have some very important none crafting news, i went to see my midwife Tuesday 24th march and just happened to mention my itching and thank god i did, she sent me for bloods next morning the Wednesday and i got a call from my GP that very night saying they were abnormal and he had made me an appt at the hospital Thursday 26th for more tests etc,

well it turns out i have got obstetric cholastasis (a liver condition related to pregnancy that should disappear once baby born) its not particularly bad for me but can apparently make you at slightly higher risk of stillbirth/health problems for baby and bleeding during labour for me.

after a long chat with my consultant they recommended i have a c section on Tuesday the 31st march, well that's only 4 days away so now its a mad rush to get things together as i wasn't due till 16th April so thought i had more time lol. so even though I'm nervous/disappointed etc I'm just glad this was picked up and my baby will be delivered safely, and to think i wasn't even going to bother mentioning my itching.

anyway just wanted to get that all of my chest as its easier for me to talk about these things on my blog than to family some times, so needless to say i might not be around from Tues for a little while although i will come on to check whats happening in blog land but may have nothing to show you all for while,
