Had a rough last few days.... But there's good news...

Been to Labor and Delivery 3 times in the last few days, but now I'm being watched very closely because I'm dehydrated, have GD and now starting to have preclampsia... And I'm dilated to a 3 and 50% effaced... I'm not due until 1/26/25 so that's 36 weeks 2 days currently. So after having to go have a follow up after only being out of the hospital for less than 10 hours... After blood pressure spiking. The OB is saying we'll most likely be induced this weekend as I'll be 37 weeks on Sunday the 5th... Now the goal is too drink plenty of water, try not to stress out and because of how painful my Braxton Hicks have been I'm also fighting to eat daily. But with all this I'm thankful I've had 2 OB's rotating on my case so when it comes time I've got 2 I trust to so what's best for my son.

Oh my! That is rough. I’ll also be 37 weeks on Saturday though and my ob is talking about having my c section then because i have protein in my urine even though my bp has been 130-135/82-87 or so. What has your bp been?

My BP was 148/93 and in that range the whole time I was at hospital. But labs were fine.... So idk but even last time I had preeclampsia my labs were fine so it's just my BP being high and me not managing blood sugar well is the main reason for induction I guess

@Erika oh ok. Im at the hospital now my bp has been about that. And have a bad headache. They’re gonna run labs see what they say. Ugh this is so stressful. Wish you a safe delivery!

Well I currently need to go back as it's 140/88 and I have a bad headache and brain fog. Like I'm super confused. But I'm most likely not going.

@Erika oh no! It’s so scary. Hopefully you feel better. They just saw my potassium is extremely low. They’re giving me some more through iv and pills.

Blood pressure now is 157/96. I can't catch a break.

@Erika omg you should try to go back in. What did your doctor tell you to do?

L& d said come back in but don't have a car and can't find someone who cares enough

@Erika oh no im so sorry you’re going through that
