Baby Update
Well I just thought I would give everyone an update on the baby...We went in for my weekly appointment yesterday and found that my blood pressure was really high, higher than last week. So the doctor sent me up to the hospital to spend the night to monitor my blood pressure and do a 24-hour urine sample to check the protien levels and make sure everything was okay. If my blood pressure didn't stabalize while I was laying in bed then I was going to be induced today, otherwise I'd be on strict bed rest for about a week and a half, until I reach 39 weeks. Well my blood pressure did stay down while I was laying down, so I was sent home this morning but have to stay in bed and am only allowed to shower and go to the bathroom. I have to go back to the doctor's office on Friday to get my blood pressure checked again and could possibly be induced this weekend or if everything still looks okay most likely next week. It's crazy and exciting to think I'm almost done and we will be having a baby anytime!!! That's the most recent update, and for those of you who have been wanting to see a picture of me, I'll try to get one up soon...maybe! ;)
