still hanging on at 35 weeks
I made it to 35 weeks today. Yah! I have had a rough pregnancy thus far.
30 weeks- diagnosed with cholestasis.
33 weeks- started symptoms of preeclampsia...bps went up from low 100s/60s to 140s over 80/90s. Headaches, small amount of swelling.
25 weeks- polyhydramnios ...but wasnt too bad. went in last friday and from my 30 week to my 34 week ...my AFI went from 25 to 41. so now breathing is a task as well as doing anything at all physically exerting.
My Sciatica or pelvic girdle is on fire. The more I do the more it hurts like hell.
Up until 30 weeks, I worked 60hours every week. Then everything got more intense and I was bumped to 32 hours per week. As of 32 weeks along...Im barely doing 16-20 hours per week. And I struggle to make it to that now.
My plan was for a VBAC, but thats gone out the door with everything else going on. So I will be doing steroids next week and then delivering via c-section on 9/6 or 9/7. really depends on my torch test that was mailed out this week due to how quickly my AFI went up to make sure don't have toxoplasmosis. If I do then an emergency c-section will happen when ever those results come it.
Sorry just venting ladies. I didnt think it would be this hard this time around. Good news is baby boy looks good on all his NSTs that are done 2x a week. He moves constantly. My LFTs have gotten better with the medication, So its just continuing to take it 3x day. So hopefully just 15 more days and he will be here. Wish me luck ladies. I just want to finish this pregnancy in one piece with a healthy lil man.
