Well I went to the dr today. I got griped at, bc my bp was so high. 156/96, ugh!!! I couldn't believe it was up that high! This is the 2nd time it's been elevated so he's talking about medication for pregnancy induced hypertension. He wants to see me in 2 wks bc of it. He is going to send me to Memphis(an hr from my house) i June for an u/s with the specialist I saw when I was pg with Olivia(I had a blood clot on my placenta). No u/s today, wah! The nurse listened ALL over my belly and we only found one hb, 156 perfect! I love that sound!!! She was very patient, making sure she checked every inch of my pg belly, lol! He said that the baby is higher than normal for my gestation so I'm prob a couple of weeks ahead or this could just be a big baby- Olivia was 9lbs,7ozs so I know I can grow em big, lol! Besides my bp everything was great! I am just tired and it's 90 deg today so that doesn't help. Y'all just pray that my bp will go down and stay down, I'd rather not take meds but you do what you have to do. :)




other than the blood pressure, glad to hear everything is ok! Just drink lots of water, get plenty of rest, and avoid salt...
keep us posted!!!
I am glad everything went well other than the bp. Did you ever find out about twins? I have been kinda lost with that.
Olivia
&nbs
I hope you can get that BP down girl. Bedrest is no fun.
Poor girl!
