33 WEEKS

Well I've made it to 33 weeks. YAY!! Yesterday was a really bad day. At about 11:30 am the nurse came into check my blood pressure and it was high. She waited a little while and checked it again and it was still high and it kept getting higher. I had several runs of having high blood pressure so they wheeled me down to labor and delivery to get hooked back up on the magnesium and to have some blood work done to see if I was headed in the direction of having Preclampsia. At this point we were under the impression that we might have babies in about one hour if my blood pressure didn't calm donw. As soon as I got down to L&D and was hooked up to the Mag, my blood pressure starting going down. My blood work came back fine. Then I had a bad spell of contractions that were pretty bad. I finally got some pain medicine and everything settled down for the night. This morning they took me off the Mag and started me back on the Procardia (a pill). Everything seems to be stable right now. So maybe I'll get through another week. I'm still in LDR #2, but hopefully will get moved back to another room on the Perinatal floor either tonight or tomorrow.
