Bedrest until the end. UPDATE
Well i went to the doctor today because i was not feeling well. My feet were swollen and i thought it was just because of the heat. Nope i was wrong. THey took my blood pressure and they said it was high. I am going for more blood work and test tomorrow and friday to see if it is preeclampcia (SP). The doctor said to stay home with my feet up for the next 4 weeks. The baby is fine which made me happy. I go for a sono tomorrow to see how developed she is because if they can not get my blood pressure down, they said that they are going to start me on steroids and may have to take her earlier. This PG has been a crazy one i am just glad it is almost over.
Update::
My blood pressure is still high but they said the baby is doing great. She is little but strong. She weighed in at 4lbs 2oz so they are keeping a close eye on me and her. They are waiting until tomorrows blood test comes back but they are hoping to have her via c-section between the 17th or 22nd. This is the master plan yet if any of my levels are off or if my blood pressure stikes they will take her well before that. I will keep you posted.

Re: Bedrest until the end.
I'm sorry that you're going through this...just make sure you do what the doctor says and stay home with your feet up.
Let us know how your blood work goes and hopefully things will not be that serious.
Hang in there...you're almost there!!!

Re: Bedrest until the end.
I have been laying around watching my DH pack because we are in the end stages of moving. I hate feeling so helpless. DH is great he keeps saying that i am doing more then he ever could by housing little Kaylee. I am taking it easy and listening to the doctor. I will update tomorrow when i know more. THanks for the posts and the FM.

Re: Bedrest until the end. UPDATE
Take this time to just relax and enjoy the time to yourself.... Once the baby comes you'll never have that much time to do nothing.
Kick your feet up, grab the remote, and enjoy being waited on by DH.
