Mild preeclampsia
So was admitted yesterday for contractions. I was severely dehydrated, don't know how but I was. Got contractions stopped but my blood pressure remained very high for hours. They did a 24 hour urine protein on me and it came back 300pts above what it's supposed to be. My blood pressure is back down where it is supposed to be now, but I have mild preeclampsia. Got the first steroid shot today and will have the other one tomorrow then stay in the hospital another 24 hours and reevaluate then. I will be 35 weeks tomorrow and they don't want me having him now if we can help it. If I get to go home it's to strict bed rest, mean eating going to bathroom and showering, nothing else. Her words were "I get to be a human incubator" until he is born.
