Waiting...

...for 3 pm so I can call the OB for my test results. I will be induced tonight if I have preeclampsia. I did a 12 hour urine catch and everything depends on the results. I have elevated BP, excessive swelling, and have had a bad headache since Saturday. If I don't have pre-e I will be induced Monday. I'm not sure if I'm ready for this but I really feel like it's time to get this kid out. I'm only 1 cm, 50% effaced so I hope the induction goes okay. Anyone have experience with high BP and symptoms but not have pre-e? Thanks!!! Edit: Everything is ok...no protein in my urine. Looks like I have a few more days to worry!! I go back on Friday to get checked so hopefully things go well and I am progressing

No advice to share, but wanted to say good luck either way!  You'll have an outside baby in no time.

Thanks! I'm so nervous I can't sit down but I also feel really awful physically. I just hope I end up getting induced tonight...if I have to wait until Monday I will be so worried and obsessed with my symptoms. LO has a 2 vessel cord so I'm concerned that the high BP will affect him more than the average baby. I guess I just have to trust the OB's.

I don't have any experience that I can share but I hope that all goes well.
