I like my Dr...but really???

My blood pressure was up today...boo hoo.  Dr. upped my dose of labetelol and now instead of every other week appts I get to see him every week...with an ultrasound every other week to check baby's growth.  I was hoping to make it to 32 weeks before going every week.  I totally agree it's worth it, but will be kind of a challenge since my Dr. office is 40 min. away from work and I will have to miss work each week to go.  Luckily, after a huge bleed again last Wednesday (not the lucky part) , and monitoring in the birthcenter, they are 99.9% sure the bleeding is from the cervical polyp and is nuscience bleeding.  I still have to do modified bedrest during an active bleed, but at least my placenta and baby look GREAT!  I am feeling pretty darn good about things for the first time...I've made it to viability and baby is measuring two weeks ahead in size, so I am truly blessed...now let's get this blood pressure down!

    Glad to hear that the bleeding is benign, even if it is very annoying and unsettling. I'm a long way from my Drs office to and I can't imagine what a pain weekly appts starting so early would be. But you gotta do what you gotta do. Hopefully, they'll give you a permanent spot at the start of the day.

    Hope all goes well for you! Starting next week I have to go twice a week - once for NST and once to the perinatologist for an ultrasound.  Like you my office is 45 min. to an hour away depending on traffic and I am going to have to miss work part of the day for two days every week.  I hope my boss doesn't freak out. 

    Also, I don't have GD, no blood pressure issues, I'm perfectly healthy and so is the baby.  All this is just because of my age.
