So, we were at the hospital again EARLY
Friday morning, but still no Claire. I woke up at 1:00 am on Friday with contractions, I timed them had 8 in an hour, so I called my doctor and they said to watch them for another hour and if they pick up to come to the ER and if they don't just to stay home and relax. Well the next hour I had 9, so Mitch and I grabbed our things and went on our way to the hospital we probably got there about 4:30 am. They took a urine sample, tested to see if my water had broken, and hooked me up for a non-stress test. My water had not broken, and my contractions weren't intense enough for them to keep me. They didn't check to see if I was dilated, but I'm guessing I'm still "closed for business" as the previous nurse on Tuesday stated it. Claire was moving around SO MUCH that they said we definitely didn't have to worry about her movement. I noticed that my blood pressure has gone up significantly, it's usually in the low 120's over 75 and Tuesday it was 130's over 80 and it was 143/84 on Friday morning. Plus I've begun to swell quite a bit which I'm worried about getting
preeclympsia, but they didn't say anything at the hospital so I must not be too bad. So we left the hospital around 7 am and got home and went back to sleep. Mitch went in to work late that day, I felt bad because he had to use half a sick day. Around 11 my doctor's office called and Dr.Shriner wants to see me Monday, so hopefully everything will be fine, I'm wondering if she changed my appointment(from
Thursday to
Monday) because of the swelling and
blood pressure, or it could be the two trips to the hospital in a week. I guess I will find out at 1 on Monday,
of course my Dad will be going with me
in case I get admitted or anything else fun happens! Our time is counting down we are almost to D-Day, and I am hoping that on Monday we find out she has turned so I can stop worrying!! So I will keep everyone posted (if I can) on Monday, I am hoping if I have to me admitted it's on Monday because we are suppose to get another bad snow storm Monday night, Ugh! Let's go
Steelers! :o) I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!
