Pregnant after a Loss

Another update (sort of)

Hey ladies! 

DH brought me my laptop, so now I can bump with ease! (except for this annoying monitor on my index finger, lol)

Thank you all for the T&Ps!

Basically, I am stuck in limbo. Still. Again. The practice I go to has several doctors & I've seen 3 over the past 2 weeks. I like them all, but they are all so different & have different opinions on my situation. I mean, they all agree that my BP is too high & it could be dangerous, although so far LO is doing great! The 1 doctor seems more conservative & was talking about induction TODAY when I saw him this morning. But then he left & doc #2 (who I know better & is much more relaxed) decided he wanted to keep LO in as long as possible (even though I am full term) - so he put me on BP meds to try to bring my BP down (it has brought it down a little bit) and may send me home tonight or tomorrow to spend 1 or 2 more weeks at home on bedrest. Part of me feels like "but wait, I'm already here!" But the other part of me is saying "I want to go home, shower, sleep in my own bed & not be covered in monitors!" The unfortunate thing is, it's not my choice! I feel like all I do is WAIT. Argh, I am so impatient, lol.

  • The important thing is that your LO is doing just fine, which is awesome!  Big Smile  Keep us posted on your BP, and I'm hoping that it goes down!

  • Sorry you're stuck in limbo.  Hopefully the Drs can make a decision together on what would be the best plan for you.  At least you have your computer now.  Hopefully they make a decision soon.

  • (((Hugs))) I can't help but wonder if your BP would go down at home as you'd be able to relax and not be hooked up to eight million things and be interrupted every five minutes.  Hopefully the doctors will caucus and give you an answer soon.

  • Glad everything is ok! There is a lot of development that happens between 37-39 weeks so it is good if they can keep him cooking for a little while longer. But being in limbo is aggravating!

    My life has a superb cast but I can't figure out the plot.
  • Waiting for a big decision like that is so hard. I hope your BP goes down and you and your LO can stay at home as one unit for a little longer!

  • I'm so glad to hear you and LO are stable and being watched closely.  Sending you lots of well wishes that you both continue to do well!  Hang in there...
