34.5wks

I went to the doctor yesterday and got some not so great news. My blood pressure is too high and my fluid level is too low. I had to do monitoring and have to go twice a week for that now. I see the doctor again on Friday and we will go from there. At this point they are trying to get me to 36wks or more. I have to stay down, and drink a gallon of water per day. The doctor told Matt that if my Bp gets any higher or if my fluid level drops at all then he will induce me. There is still the risk of emergency C-sect. and if my Bp is high then I will have to be on Magnesium. I HATE Magnesium...that is horrible stuff, and it would be for 24hrs. after as well, but the alternative is having a stroke. Plus I really don't want the baby to have to stay in the hospital, and there is chance of that too. Lots to think about! Scary stuff....
