Ugh- Protein in my urine
So, after last week's hospital visit and there being trace amounts of protein in my urine, I went to the doctor today. Turns out I still have protein in my urine! Ugh. I did a 24 hour urine collection Friday, dropped it off at the lab on Saturday- and they are still testing it. Dr H said she will call me once she gets the results.
The good news though is that my blood pressure is back to normal- so I guess that was just maybe me being stressed out at the hospital (which I didnt think I was stressed, but whatever).
Dr H also said that I am now measuring 2 weeks ahead of my due date! Oye! She also said if I go into labor right this very second, she wouldnt stop me! 
So thats it on me- I am going to the dr every week now- I cant believe it!

Re: Ugh- Protein in my urine
OY!! I hated that 24 hour collection. DH hated the container sitting around. I don't blame him. They ended up giving me 3 containers because my first collection bottle was filled within 8 hours. So, I had to redo the test with 3 containers.
Hang in there!!!!! Almost there!!!!

Yeah, it was the pits- but it was over before I knew it. I didnt even fill half a container! lol. Hopefully everything will come back normal!
