Went for a regular appointment and ultrasound
Was excited to see my darling baby girl today on the ultrasound since I haven't see her since 21 weeks. She sure has grown. Measuring at 40 weeks, which upped my due date 3 weeks to today. She was also estimated to weigh 8lbs 11oz. I know they say 2-3lbs under or over that. But everything looked great! Then to see my OB, and had my BP checked...it hasn't been high my entire 37 weeks....today it was 146/94, red flag. So waited a few minutes and checked again, 148/100. My Dr immediately said bed rest. Said although baby is measuring 40 weeks, she's still a 37 week baby. So she wants to wait until my appointment next week to make sure my BP doesn't remain high, which I'm also checking it at home and have to do a 24 hour urine test and return it tomorrow. So my September 12th baby may get to come early if my OB sees fit. Other than my BP everything else was perfect. I'm sad tho because I didn't have time to finish up at work, and had to leave so many ends untied. 😒 but I'm so glad I getting to finally rest.
