Pre-E, Bedrest, and 34 Week Update

MaygenDL0ve

Since being diagnosed with pre-eclampsia last week, I've been at home on bedrest.  My step mom is here taking care of me full time, which is AWESOME.  Surprisingly, the proteins in my urine went way down just after a week of bed rest!  And my blood pressure went down to 128/84!  Still high for me, but much safer than it was last week.  I made it to 34 weeks!!

My OB still wants me to make it to 37 weeks, and thinks I can do it if I can keep up the rest.  If I haven't gone into labor by 37 weeks, I'll be induced.

The boys are doing great and getting all their points in the BPPs, too  Great news all around.... the only news I was kinda bummed to hear is that Baby A, who has been head down the past couple months, is now transverse.  Must be from all that laying around I've been doing  I'm just glad he's still healthy
