Obstetric Cholestasis

The itching is really bad again, so I called the triage to ask if my liver values from the blood test I did on Friday were available. She said they’re elevated again and it’s better if I come in so they can monitor the baby and have the doctor check me. It really annoys me—if I hadn’t called, they probably wouldn’t have done anything about it! 🥺😢 my bile level is 105. I’m so worried now. Off to triage soon. Really worried baby is not ok

bless you, so sorry to hear it has gotten worse! my bile acid levels got to 57 and the itching was awful so feel for you. I’m actually sat in the labour ward now as I got induced at 37+5 as they saw my levels were rising. how many weeks are you? xx

Thank you. I’m 34 weeks, nearly 35. My level was 13 last week so I was happy. Didn’t realise it can change so quickly 😢. Good luck with the induction x

Bless you it’s so hard! Have they put you on Urso to help lower bile acids? Hopefully if they rose quickly they will lower again quickly too ❤️ you’ll be in the best place to monitor baby and hopefully you won’t have too much longer before you meet them xxx

They haven’t given me Urso because my last bile acid was 14! So worried now. I’m not ready to be induced at 35 weeks. Someone in Facebook said when level is 105 means that they keep me in the hospital to induce me at 35 weeks 🥺😭

Yes it can mean being induced early but better to be safe than sorry isn’t it ❤️ hopefully you’ll get reassurance and a plan of action soon xx

sometimes it can mean getting induced but it really just depends on how ur levels are & they can fluctuate so much! when you go in literally ask them every single question you have… they are there to help you! for me, bubba has been absolutely fine but they wanted to air on the side of caution. Make sure you just monitor his movements, u got this xx

or she haha!
