@paytonpedro
that's right it was. I eventually got it. Hopefully since this time my BP is controlled on meds (last time it wasn't) It won't.

@Katek819 it is related to pre-eclampsia as @paytonpedro said. I have to do one. I'm supposed to drop off my sample at my next appt on March 7(which will be about 16-17 weeks) I have had high BP readings at my appointments but not when I monitor at home and work.  They are looking for a protein in the urine.  I asked for a second jug because the gallon one they gave me didn't look big enough..seems like I pee a lot 🤷‍♀️

Just got home from OB appt. Everything was good. Heartbeat was 156. I asked if it was too early to tell the sex of the baby at weeks since I went last week. She said that was way too early to tell on a u/s. Anatomy scan 3/15. So I guess I’ll know for sure then.

@and_peggy they wouldn’t even peek?? Or they weren’t doing an ultrasound?

@mdfarmchick it was just a Doppler appt today.

I forgot to mention the good part about our appointment today. At 17 weeks, baby had a heartbeat if 130 and we could even hear it kicking/wiggling around! So fun!

I had my 16 week checkup today! Everything looked normal and I got my AS scheduled for 3/25. Both the nurse & the doctor asked if I felt baby move and were surprised I said yes and how I claimed she was very active. But then when we were listening to the baby's heartbeat, the doctor commented on how active she was too.

@darkrose88 so glad you had a good appointment!! And that you get to feel baby moving.
