The Latest...
Well, Steve tells me it was inevitable, but I was really hoping to avoid the high blood pressure. Not only did we not avoid it, but we are dealing with it about 4 weeks sooner that we did with the boys. I officially got put on "modified bed rest" at week 28. Of course Steve was out of state for work when it all went down. All I can say is THANK HEAVENS FOR MY MOM!! She is such a trooper. She and Kris have both been sick and she just jumped right in and handled everything with a smile. I am so grateful that my parents are close by. They came over to my house and cleaned, did laundry and got some baby stuff brought up from the basement. It is so early and has been a little scary. I was at the hospital one day for about 12 hours and they were going to keep me overnight, luckily I was able to relax and my levels came down and they let me come home. I will go in weekly for non-stress tests and lab work to check on how my organs are handling the high blood pressure. This week while I was there they decided that they would give me the steroid shots for the baby's lungs just in case I come this early. It has been almost 2 weeks (a very long 2 weeks) and we are still holding on. I will see the doctor every Friday as well and the last visit things are looking about the same, so we are taking everyday as a victory! We do not want her to come this early. I will try to keep everyone posted since I don't have a lot of other things to do with my time!! Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers they have been felt and are very appreciated! (And just in case anyone is wondering Steve will NOT be going out of town again until after the baby is born...no matter what!!)
