Went to the hospital today

in Upstate NY Babies

I had a dr appt at 8:30, my Dr sent me right to the hospital because my feet were swollen and my BP was up, they were concered about toxemia. 

Got there and they hooked me up to the monitor, took blood and did urine test, after spending 3+ hours, we found out that all the tests came back negative and they sent us home.  All the nurses swore the Dr was going to induce me and start my labor.  But no go.

I'm having contractions every 4 minutes, they're strong enough that they're registering, but they're not bothering me yet, and I'm only dialited 1 so they put me on bed rest. 

Looks like it should be anytime now - I'll keep you girls in touch as everything progresses!

    ugh.. That stinks. I am actually suprised they didn't induce you since you are past your due date and your BP is high..  Definitely rest up while you can though. I hope those contractions speed up for you.
