    Unknown pregnancy

    I can't believe I'm posting this but one of my friends is pregnant, she didn't know until yesterday and she's having the baby on Monday.

    She's my friend and business partner. We work together in the same office.

    She's been to the doctor 3 times in the last few months because she was coming down with every infection going. She's had two pregnancy tests that proved negative, and an examination where the doctor said she was probably suffering from fibroids. She was bleeding non-stop for 6 months.

    She was so run down and ill that I stood over her while she reluctantly phoned her doctor for another appointment. Within an hour (she doesn't drive) she asked for a lift to the hospital, where she still is.

    She has nothing prepared and this is a Bank Holiday weekend. I'm having great difficulty explaining to her friends and family that we have more than 4 days as there is not a cat in hells chance of that baby being allowed out of the hospital in the near future.

    She's my friend, and I'm so worried for her and the baby.

      I'm having a major problem dealing with this as I come from a medical background. They are trying to make sure the baby gets to over the 34 weeks mark to give it a better chance of survival, but it is in distress. She's already gone into labour twice.

            When I saw the title and the first few words my thoughts were ' how can you not know ' but then reading on I can see why she didnt know. I hope everything goes well at least now she is in the right place and they will be doing all they can.
            Hugs to all involved and I am sure she is grateful to have you as a friend, once freinds and family know, she will have everything she needs for the baby.

                    You just have to be there chuck - it's out of your hands. And hope that the baby is ok. Tough weekend ahead. x

                      As zazen says. All you can do is be there for her. I really hope that everything turns out ok. She is very lucky to have such a caring friend.

                        Best wishes to mother and baby, and of course to you, how stressful.

                        Thanks to you she's now in the best place, and you can only deal with what goes as it does. Hoping you'll keep us updated with the news.

                            That's terrible JanieB. I really hope things go well for her and her baby. It's times like this that you find out who your real friends are, sticking by her and encouraging her to get in touch with the Dr is what a friend does. She's lucky to have you and I can understand your concern for her. It must be a very worrying time for all involved, but people will rally round and make sure she has things provided for her and her baby. Being in hospital is definitely the best place for now.
                            Just be there to hold her hand when she need it, sometimes these small acts speak volumes.
                            My very best wishes to all. xxxx
