Yes bad and then me and my baby’s bp dropped low and I had to have a C-section!

@Huney. How bad ?? What was it

@Adrianna I honestly really can’t remember my numbers but I can try to go through my discharge papers. they monitored me and my baby closely. My baby ended up with a lower resting heart rate due to everything going on but overall he didn’t have to stay in the nicu and I was okay after the C-section was over. The C-section was super scary and I cried but after looking back if I would have been more prepared I wouldn’t have been as scared. A lot happened at once and it freaked everyone out but it was a positive experience after everything was over. If you ever need a conversation or to hear any advice or thoughts, let me know!

@Huney. How’d they get it down and I’m sorry I’m glad you guys are okay tho!

@Adrianna they gave me some kind of medicine in the hospital in my iv and monitored me. As soon as he was out, both of our blood pressures evened out

@Huney. I’m 38 weeks and 2 days and they’ve told me they think I was in early labor but not sure and my blood pressure is going up for some reason

@Adrianna have you gone in to see a nurse? I’d stop by to have them check your dilation. Have you been having contractions? I couldn’t feel mine at first

Yes and yes , that’s why they thought I was in early labor and she had to reach behind my babies head to feel my cervix which was closed but it felt like a dimple she said

@Huney. They told me to monitor my blood pressure twice a day and I have a regular NST check up tomorrow morning

@Adrianna I would try to have softsex and do squats to try to induce labor and get a cuff

@Huney. I have a cuff and I have an induction since I’m diabetic scheduled for Tuesday!

mine fluctuated lots with my first but settled. This time round it kept being high so they prescribed lobetalol to help keep it down.
