35 weeks and sent to L&D
So I had a regular doctors appointment today with an ultrasound to check on my baby girl's growth. She has IGUR and is measuring in the 5th percentile. Everything was going good until they checked my blood pressure. It was 150/110 so they checked twice same results. So they sent me to L&D for blood pressure monitoring and have been here for an hour and my blood pressure is still high. Current blood pressure is 150/98. Wish me luck ladies!!! Hopefully she will be able to stay in for a few more weeks but if the blood pressure isn't under control she might turn into a February baby. I'll keep y'all updated
Update#1 just got done doing blood work current blood pressure reading is 164/96 still waiting to see if they will admit me or send me home.
Update#2 current blood pressure is 151/92 and having some contractions but they discharged me with a 24 hour urine test.
Update#3 went back to the hospital last night they admitted me and currently seeing if they can keep my blood pressure down with meds and doing a 24 hour observation and waiting on all lab results to get back before making decision to deliver her early or not. They did find protein in my urine so gotta do a 24 hour pee test and they gave me a steriod shot for her lungs and I get the other one tomorrow morning.
Final update they induced me due to tons of complications on 2/7 and I had her at 2/8 at 4:41 am. She is currently in the nicu to help gain weight other than that she is perfectly healthy. I on the other hand turned out to have pneumonia and will be staying in the hospital a little longer than thought. previously.
