I am starting to think that I am cursed.
From my post....

Well, I thought it was going to be a boring appointment. Turned out to not be. The doctor was concerned about my weight gain and asked me if I had a lot of swelling. I have been swelling a lot, so I showed him my ankles. They are disgusting. I assumed it was from being on my feet so much. My blood pressure was 150/100.....eesh. I think it is because of how nervous I get before each appointment. I never know if they are going to hear her heartbeat or not. That is pretty stressful. Anyway, these are signs of toxemia and now he is concerned that I might have that. Super. They took a few vials of blood and I have to pee in a jar for 24 hours on Saturday. I go back on Friday to get an u/s, do my glucose test and hopefully get the blood results. I go back on Monday to turn in my pee and get some more blood work done. So if it turns out that I have toxemia they are going to induce. In a healthy pregnancy they would put me on bedrest, but since this isn't a normal pregnancy he wants to induce if the results come back positive for toxemia. Another reason that he wants to do the u/s is to see if she is still breech. That kinda freaked me out. Ha ha, the blood pressure didn't freak me out. The swelling didn't freak me out. The possible toxemia didn't freak me out. The possibility that she may be breech freaks me out. I guess it is more the fact that he is talking about her being breech and that I may be in labor in a few days is the real cause. I am trying to be positive, but I haven't much sunshine and rainbows left in me. Could you guys be positive for me? |
