Well crap...

The results came back in from my pre-e test last week and the proteins had increased over the week before. This means that my pre-e is gradually getting worse. I was hoping being at home would help to stabilize everything. My blood pressure was 139/78 which did remain steady but that is most likely due to all of the BP Meds that I am taking. I am still considered "Mild Pre-E" The Dr. just wants me to take it very easy and do as little as possible. My next appointment is Thursday. At that appointment we will do our usual meet with the doc and NST. But due to the worsening test results the Doctor also added another ultrasound.

Update on Andrew

I was written out of work last Monday! I haven't been put on "bed rest" but I am suposed to be taking it very easy from this point on. I am now doing appointments twice a week with a Non-Stress Test included. They monitor his heart rate and me for contractions for half an hour each appointment. We also had another ultrasound last week to check and make sure he is growing like he should. He was already approx. 4lbs!! He seems to be a very healthy little guy. The biggest news from the latest round of doctor appointments is that Andrew will be a November baby. Because of the blood pressure issues that I am having the doctors will induce me at 37 weeks. So that means he will be here sometime between Nov. 12-19th. That is only 6 weeks away! That realization did come as quite a shock to both Kyle and I. There is still so much to do! This should help to keep me busy but visitors are always welcome. Plus, I am really looking forward to my baby showers and Fall Festival with my mom and sister, and my 30th birthday! With all of that fun scheduled October is sure to fly by. Yikes!



I am going to try to post Andrews newest ultrasound picture...I hope it works.
