Monday morning I had a doctor's appointment, my blood pressure was high, too high, so my doc sent me to IMC to be monitored, I was monitored from 11:30 -6:00. They sent me home on bedrest with instructions to do a 24 hour urine collection. I had to come back to IMC yesterday afternoon to drop off my urine. I went home and was laying down, and I got a headache, took some Tylenol, it didn't help, Andy left to work his graveyard shift at 6:30, at 9:30, I took my blood pressure and it was 156/95, and found myself on my way back to IMC. I'm still here, my urine showed that I for sure have preclampsia. When I first got here there was talk of delivering the baby this morning, but my blood pressure got better, but I've had a headache that won't go away. They don't want to send me home until my headache is under control, but I don't think I will make it another week being pregnant. I'm scared, but I also feel like he is going to be okay, I think having our experience with my youngest that the NICU doesn't scare me as much as it once did, no I don't want to plan on having to use the NICU, but I'm only 34 weeks along, so the chances are pretty big that he will spend some time there, which is okay, he will be okay.
I haven't slept well, they won't let me eat or drink anything, and man I miss my boys! I just want to cuddle them, hopefully there will be a plan soon and I will know what's going on!!
