Appointment issues

I had an unexpected appointment at OB today - over the weekend I was feeling dizzy, seeing stars and this morning I passed out. At the appointment my iron was down to 4 despite twice a day supplements so I had an iron infusion. I am 35/6 and am measuring 42.5. Had an ultrasound (because I fell when I passed out) and LO is looking good and estimated at 8 pounds. I also have a strained pelvic girdle - basically a pulled muscle in my pelvis that hurts when laying down/trying to roll over or trying to get from sitting to standing. I go back again next week to discuss early induction options - doctor thinks my due date was likely incorrect - I didn't have regular periods and was 15 weeks at my first ultrasound so no sure fire way to determine the due date.

Yikes, sounds scary. I'll be keeping you in my thoughts. I was feeling really dizzy last week too and they found my iron low as well, coincidence? Sounds like doc. Might be right that your EDD is off, hopefully though you can just wait for LO to come when he or she is ready. Take it easy!
