Feeling yuk-and time off work, some advice please!!
Hello all- after a bit of girly advice if possible!!
I went to work as happily as possible this morning-though I woke up with a really, really sore throat!! Any way within two hours I had stomach cramps and felt awful!! So I ended up scarying my very male boss by tearfully asking to go home!
Anyway, I arrived home just in time to deal with a upset stomach which involved me nearly screaming with cramps. Any way I ended up with a emergancy appointment at the midwife and it seems I may have a viral infection. The midwife seemed quite concerned-in fact called me after her shift at the doctors! If I get worse I need to go to the hospital, or the doctors if I'm no better tomorrow. She advised that I need to eat little and get plenty of rest-which brings me finally to my point!!
I hate being off work and don't want to have trouble off them for doing so. Therefore feel I should try and go in tomorrow- but my hubby says I should rest, can they cause trouble for me?? Midwife wrote in my notes so I can prove I went!! :roll:
Sorry for the rant!! (
Just need some advice

I hope you feel less yucky soon, being ill when you are pregnant is crap!
Take care,

I don't know what's going on to be honest-I have a history of gastric problems (I think my midwife hates me spine implant and stomach issues!!), I think it's a viral infection thats just kicked everything off! Even sneezing is hurting at the minute.
I know your all right, sometimes you just need to hear it off someone else to get it straight in your own head!! I just hope they're ok when I go back in!!
i hope ur not going into work today!!!
i hope ur feeling better too - its horrible being ill and pregnant.

My boss was really nice and kept telling me if I got too tired and couldn't hack it I could leave early! Also, when the tube strike was on, I still tried my best to get into work and got in late, but after I had lunch my boss let me go home early. Just in case I got crushed on my way home.
