It's been a long week...
I was going to try really hard to NOT be a whiner. It's not working very well. It's been a long week. Here I am 9 months pregnant and trying to be patient and get through the last few weeks. I'm preeclamptic however, and so they've been watching me a lot more closely at the doctor's over the last few weeks. I came in to my appointment on Monday with a major migraine, my blood pressure was up and my reflexes were way off, so they sent me to the hospital to do some testing. They monitored the baby, did some blood tests, and checked my blood pressure a million times. They gave me a shot in the butt of Morphine and Fenegrin to get rid of my headache and sent me home. The shot made me pretty out of it, and I spent the rest of the day puking every time I got up to do anything. Ryan took off work the next day to let me recover and I literally spent the next day sleeping and trying to get better. By Wednesday I was back to normal, and I had my appointment today. The morphine lowered my blood pressure and got rid of my headache, and my tests looked good today. My doc asked if I could handle a few more days, and I agreed I probably could, so we're scheduled to induce on Monday night, so baby should be here on Tuesday! I'm excited and nervous all at the same time. Wish me luck!
