What do you think?

I am hoping to get some opinions from everyone. I went to the doctor today for my weekly visit. I found out my bp was up and there is protein in my urine. I have to do a 24 hour urine tomorrow and go back to the doctor on Wednesday. I am just wondering what to expect....do you think they will induce me? I saw the NP today and she could only guess that the doctor wouldn't mess around with it but couldn't say one way or the other. I know none of you ladies will know for sure what he will do but I thought maybe some of you have had this happen to you. I have some medical problems...pacemaker and epilepsy. Not sure how that will factor in!? Just wondering if anyone has any advice...I am freaking out a little. Thanks for your thoughts/suggestions!

  • I'm going to guess that if your BP continues to be high and the 24 hour comes back w/ protein there's a good chance he'll induce you...
  • I have a friend that was hospitalized for similar reasons. They kept her for a few days b/c they wanted to be sure baby was okay (big and strong enough) and that things weren't getting better. I think she was a little over 37 weeks when they delivered.

    With pre-e depending on how high those protien and BP levels are they may try & wait (with a lot of monitoring) for 37w because that's a line in the sand for full term. If it's too high, they'd probably want to get things going asap. Good luck, I hope ta not pre-e.
