Struggling with Cholestasis

econaty

I am 25w1d and was just diagnosed with cholestasis or ICP. My bile acid levels are only at 16 but the MFM doctor is concerned how much time I have for my levels to rise. Logically I understand chances of my baby being just fine is high. But I can't help being scared and nervous. Forget the constant itching that comes with this, I worry about the baby coming too soon. Don't get me wrong I'm grateful everyday for my little miracle but I wish I could just have a smooth and easy normal pregnancy

Sending T&Ps your way. I'm sure you will be able to cook your LO for some more time and if you do have to give birth early that he or she will come out perfectly healthy.

My sister had this last year. She was super scared and worried, but they monitored her very closely, got her on medication and took the baby early. Both mom and baby were healthy and the itching stopped immediately after delivery.
