short story (TMI) I had swabs at 24,28 and 32 weeks preg and got given AB's as I have ureaplasmic cells ....that's fine ..in the end E was induced 38 weeks....
I just assumed this time I would have swabs done but mw has checked and hospital don't want to see me unless i have unusual discharge.. (as I haven't had pre term baby)
does anyone know the chances of pre term delivery with this combination.....? my old mw didnt say just gave me three sets of Ab's and everything was fine...
I can't force them to swab me (though at next mw appt I will try) as the only way I can be proved right is having a pre term baby and I dont want that of course!!
apparently it's reasonably common but I don't know anyone else (except two lovely ladies on here ...one who had pre term and one who didn't )
I am a worrier (anxiety issues) and try not to think too much about it really as I can't do anything yet .. but anyway anyone know any proper info (not mr google:) ) about it ? or experienced pregnancy with the ureaplasma cells?
to me it sounds like your midwife is too busy listening to the hospital and she needs to listen more to you and your concerns. Its nt hard for her to do the swabs herself or get your gp to do them
my one said I had to met her at the hospital to do them as they have special fluid or something for the ureaplasma test.
however my midwife just got a couple when she was there last time so she will do them
Id say push for them to be done if you really want them done!
yeah i will...i havent seen her since 13 weeks i see her when i am 17 weeks 6 days so i will plead my case then.. she said they have to be done at the hospital? so not sure if GP can do them....i just wouldnt forgive myself if something happened because I didn't push for them so i will..
my midwife grabbed a couple of the 'urea-plasma test things' last night when she was there. all your midwife has to do is ask for a couple of the test things!
Id ring your dr and ask
ohh and my midwife said I was to met her on the labour ward where she would do these tests. however this morning she said that the hospital wouldn't of allowed her to use one of there rooms since I was only 16 weeks anyway :/
oh ok...when i was 24weeks they just let her..mind you she didnt ask she demanded..lol so i met her there every four weeks and got them done..they werent so bad just the thought of it was worse..
i think I'll leave it till next appt as it's only 2 weeks away
yeah strep by itself is fine40% of people have it at any given time).. but apparently combination isnt great but one of the ladies who has it contacted me on here and gave me some very interesting info her OB gave her so that was very handy....made me worry less:)
