Hello everyone my name is Marie-Lena I am the wife of davejag, I just seen this on this favorite list and thought Id say hello. I always wondered where my husband had all the right answers to our questions, well now I know I guess.

I as well have a question I am 24 weeks pregnant, I am a high risk pregnancy I am off on medical maternity already. I have no energy (I still have morning sickness) and I have to sleep at least 10 to 12 hours a night. Plus I have nose bleeds at least 2 to 3 times a day what's wrong with me?

I hope someone can help thank you have a great day.

You are pregnant :-) Why are you a high risk pregnancy? Have you spoken to your OB? Any other symptoms?

I know that when my sister had nose bleeds and anybody else I ever knew that had regular nosebleeds it was a lack of vitamin K and/or C

Nosebleed.
Make sure you take your prenatal vitamins.

My daughter is high risk with her pregnancy too because she had hpv.

I am at high risk because I have had 2 failed pregnancies, plus a car accident, and at 18 weeks I had contractions and the doctors had to stop the labour, I have what they call a stitch in.

I have not talked to my doctor about these symptoms because he is on vacation to Hawaii for 3 weeks lucky him. The man he left in charge is a doctor you just don't want to go see.

Is his nurse available? You don't necessarily have to go see the doctor, but just find out a little more about what could be going on. 3 weeks is a long time to wait in a high risk pregnancy. I would find someone else, a Dr. or Nurse, that you are comfortable contacting while your doc is away.

I don't think given your situation you should be taking any advice from anyone except a medical professional. There is too much at stake.

My opinion only... sorry I am not willing to suggest anything... I just don't feel qualified or that I want the responsibility of what happens if I am wrong.

GOOD LUCK!! I HOPE YOU HAVE A HEALTHY BABY!

I am sure we had nothing to do with it, and your husband is just a wonderful and smart man.

But with a high risk, your doctor should be on speed dial and you talking to him with the slightest issues.

Fr? What in the heck is this supposed to mean? You even lost me with that one?

Yes you would think he would be on speed dial, the doctor I have is a really good doctor but of course he does need sometime to vacation. I have found a nurse I can speak to this evening when she is on shift, all let you all know then. P.S I married the most wounderful man in the world you are right Fr_Chuck about that.
