I went to the dr wed. and my BP was really high over an hour and half it stayed at 151/10. Dr sent me to hospital to get bloodwork done to rule out toxemia and to be monitored. All the bloodwork came back fine so I am just waiting for the results of the 24 hour urine test to totally rule out Toxemia. I find out Tuesday what the results are. The dr said we would be delivering the babies if it was toxemia, I am 31 weeks today and 2 weeks ago the babies were 3 lb 5oz and 3lb 3oz. Dr put me out of work till i deliver due to BP and to stay stress free no bed rest yet but I will just be taking it easy till I find out the results. I'm trying to stay stress free we are all set if the girls were too come I know it will be early but I am trying to not think about it too much.
Any advice or past experience with toxemia would be appreciated....
Had my 1st son at 36w and my twins at 35w3d from pre eclapmsia. Not sure if it is exactly the same or similar but I hears it referred to as both terms while I was in the hospital.
With DS I was past 36w so they just induced me.
With the twins I was just shy of 34w when BP started to rise. My 24 hr urine cam eback borderline. I was not on official bedrest but the doc wanted me to really take it east. By 35w my BP was higher and I was admitted to the hospital to be monitored. They wanted to try and keep the babies in til 36w. 3 days later my BP was still high and I was having headaches and blurry vision so they did a c/s then.
Try to relax......stay calm.....stay off your feet as much as possible and drink a lot of water!! Praying that your little ones cook a little longer!!
