High-Risk Pregnancy

Joining the bed resters

Had my 2nd NST for the week scheduled yesterday at the hospital.  Called them when I got up because I have this awful cold and feel like poop.  My doc happened to be on call and said if I didn't go yesterday I'd have to go today.  I decided to just get it over with.

So, I go.  Baby looks great.  I was getting up to leave and the nurse said she "Oh wait!  I need your BP one more time!"  Argh.  It was 152/89, higher than it's ever been.  She calls the doc again who wants more tests.  Protein in my urine and apparently the labs they ordered didn't get me an A+.  I've also had some very mild swelling in my ankles.  After 3 hours I got to go home with my 24 urine bottles and an order for bed rest.  More labs tomorrow and back to the doc in the morning. 

I think LO will be arriving a little earlier than expected.
