Update on me and little Natalie..

pag41989

Hey ladies I posted about being in triage on monday. My ob decided to send me home and see me at a normal checkup and my bloodpressure was178/99 and they found increased levels of protein in my urine. My midwife immediately decided to admit me to the hospital and I have been here sincelast night. They're making me do another 24 hour urine catch and have put me on lasix to get some of the swelling down in my legs and feet. I just had an ultrasound done and the baby is looking good and has been activethis morning measuring at 4.5 lbs. They are giving me steroid shots for the babys lungs in case things get worse but for right now they are thinking that I may just end up on home or hospital bedrestforthe restof my pregnancy depending on the results of my urine catch and how my bp keeps doing. Any t& ps for me and little Natalie youcould sparewould be great. P.s. Sorry for the text if it's all wonky.. Attempting to post from my iPod touch.

Oh my goodness....here's to hoping everything looks good and your little one stays put for another few weeks! Bed rest isn't ideal....but at least it would keep you pregnant!

Oh no! Please take it easy and get healthy quickly.  You and little Natalie have been in my thoughts this week.  Hopefully the Drs will give you some good news this weekend.

If you end up on bedrest, I sure hope it's at HOME!  Glad to hear the baby is doing well, now you just have to keep her in there for as long as you can!  Good luck darling! XO

Yikes!  Hopefully the doctors can get everything under control so that you can at least go home and relax and focus on keeping Ms. Natalie in the oven for a little bit longer!  

I'll be sending lots of Ts & Ps your way!  Keep us posted!

Definitely sending you my T&Ps, Paula!  I too hope you can do bed rest at home at least, I know it's not fun.  Just keep thinking good thoughts... and enjoy what's left of your pregnancy.  Hopefully you will still have several weeks of it left!  Good luck!

I'm a little late to the party but wanted to let you know I've been thinking about you, and hope you are feeling better. Bed rest sucks but hopefully you'll be in your own bed/couch!
