Another trip to L & D

I'm wondering how much more drama I can take with this pregnancy. Even though I love some drama, when it involves the health of your unborn child, it can be scary. Monday, I went to my regular weekly doc appointment only to learn that my blood pressure was through the roof. My doc immediately sent me to L & D for a battery of tests and blood pressure readings. Everything turned out just fine. I don't have Pregnancy Induced Hypertension just yet. I have to check my BP every few hours and make sure I don't over do it. I was relieved to learn that I don't have any tale tell signs of PID per my blood work. Anyway, I only have 3 weeks and 4 days to the due date so hopefully I'll make it as long as possible. Despite all of the drama, little Peggy is doing great with no stress or issues. I was also relieved to see her on the Ultrasound sucking her little thumb. I can hardly believe that she is about to be here in our house. The past few weeks I have been wishing that things would hurry up and time would go faster. Now, I'm trying to enjoy every day and atleast get a little sleep since I won't have time for that once she's here. It's kinda fun wondering when she will decide to come into the world. I wonder if it will be before or after the due date. I don't think my doc will let me go past the due date. Anyway, I'll post some pics of my fat self later today. Love and hugs.

Bless your heart! You check your BP like you're suppose to. Two of my three came early b/c of high BP that came out of NOWHERE!! They were perfect one day, and the next day off the charts. Good luck with everything. I'll keep you in my prayers.
