Bed rest for remainder of pregnancy!
By dmartin65 » Posted Dec. 26, 2012 7:09pm - 489 views - 4 comments
I am officially on full bedrest for the remainder of my pregnancy. I have been on bedrest since the 19th due to HBP. I have been in triage 2 times for HBP in the last two weeks. Saw my Ob for my followup today and my BP was the highest EVER. Sent me down to triage and monitored me. Blood pressure finally settle down but I am on bedrest with only bathroom priviliges. Uggg!!! I see my OB again on Monday and depending on my BP he might put me in the hospital on bedrest for the remainder of my pregnancy. Luckily I will be 35 weeks Friday so I don't have much to go. I truly think that if he can get me to 37 weeks, safely that he will decide to go ahead and take her early but we shall see. Luckily my fluid, though high, is not increasing. Sabrina was over 6lbs last week at my perinatal appointment so she is still growing like a little weed. Thinking of you ladies and wishing you all a very happy and safe New Year. We all have miracles to look forward to in 2013 and if I have to stay in bed until mine gets here, then it will so be worth it.
