34 Weeks and Bed Rest
So, of all times to end up on bed rest. The hubby is in Aspen, the dog is doing poorly and during what I think will be a routine checkup I find out I have preclampsia and need to go on bed rest. I followed the doctor's orders over the weekend with some help from my great friends who looked after me and then Jay took me back to the doctor on Monday. My BP was still up and there was protein in my urine, a tell tale sign of preclampsia. I was trying to work from home, but sitting up for too long kept spiking my BP as well...so now the doctor has ordered me to stop even that. So, from here on out we will be going to the doctor weekly and I am guessing it will be a week by week thing as to how I am doing and how baby girl is doing...she could come anytime if things get a bit worse....so stay tuned!!
