Raised LFT's/liver function

Hi ladies. I'm 32+1 - I was admitted to triage on Thursday after seeing my midwife and mentioning itchy hands and feet. Bloods showed extremely high LFT's (liver function) and I've been kept in to keep an eye on baby movements (all ok) but just had more blood tests and they are still rising. I'm waiting for a doctor, but they can't find out what is causing it. I know I'm in the best place, but my anxiety is all over the place. Bit of a long stretch, but just seeing if anyone else has experienced this. Or maybe just to vent as I'm currently alone in a hospital room waiting some more 😅

This is really weird but I had this for weeks, raised ALT and low albumin and they never found the cause it self corrected, I have weekly blood tests and ctg monitoring anyways which was when it was picked up xx

@Amber Thank you for commenting! It's so strange! Our bodies are wonderful... but weird. They are baffled. I'm perfectly fine apart from what my bloods are showing. I'm hoping to see a doctor soon, I'm back on Wednesday for a growth scan too 🤦‍♀️ Slightly reassuring! I'm sorry you've had this too! Xx

Yeah I think sometimes when they do lots of tests they pick up things we wouldn't even know about and the body often just sorts itself out if given time ahah! Like they said with me as long as baby is fine and my obs and everything were okay they just monitored it xx

@Amber Thank you lovely! Xx

Were bile acids raised? Mine were raised earlier in pregnancy so they're keeping an eye on it because of cholestasis. The icp support group on Facebook has some good information

@Siobhan They have fluctuated! 🤷🏻‍♀️ Lovely, thank you!
