Well i had bloodwork this morning and then a non stress test. My mom came up to take me to both (thank god) and since my bp was so high they are keeping me here until my results come in. So now my mom and I are just hanging out here for now. I'll update when I know more!
I'm home!! After 4 1/2 hours of laying there, i finally was released! However, I have pre eclampsia, mild. So while i don't have to deliver today (thank goodness!!) I will probably be having this baby in the next 2 weeks. I'm scheduled for another NST on THursday (and will continue twice a week with these), i have a dr appt monday, an ultrasound monday, and i was put on blood pressure medication. Oh, and i got another u/s today which showed the baby measuring at 5 1/2 lbs. That makes me nervous because 2 weeks ago (12 days to be exact) she was only 4 1/2. Then again i know they can be off by a half a lb so i'm not going to stress. Not to mention she's only in the 36th percentile which i believe makes her smaller than average right?! I don't get that whole percentile thing... can you tell i sucked at math? Well that's all for now!... i think!

Hope your blood work comes back fine and you get to go home. I did the same thing several times with Connor so I totally feel your pain.....

Rest, drink lots of water, and put your feet up. Don't stress too much about size yet.

They can totally be off. Tyler ended up being bigger than we thought, but i know plenty of people who were told they were having HUGE babies and they came out average. It goes both ways. Sounds like she's still doing good, which is great. You just rest. What meds did they give you?? Can't wait to meet her, you relax in the mean time and make ben do everything!!!
Aren't NSTs so fun  I always tried to find a good magazine or make B come for entertainment.
