Another day in L&D : Updated

Three weeks ago, I was admitted to the hospital because I was having contractions. Today my doctor admitted me because my blood pressure was very high and I was in excruciating pain on my left side. My belly was hard as a rock. After 7 hours of tests that all came back negative, I was discharged. My left side still bothers me, I can barely walk and I have no appetite. I can't drink enough fluids (the funny part is I was drinking milk and water all morning before I was admitted). I can't get comfortable or sleep. I'm 35 weeks and 2 days today. I guess these little boys are waiting until June to come out!

UPDATE : I'm still having a lot of pain on my left side. Did anyone else feel this towards the end? I'm going back to my doctor tomorrow to have my BP taken again. Thanks!

Re: Another day in L&D

they ran your bloodwork and you were OK to go home??
i was in the hospital for preeclampsia when i had pain under my rib cage and around my back. they delivered me that day because my bloodwork showed that i developed HELLP syndrome which is a serious complication of pre-eclampsia.

feel better!!!!

Re: Another day in L&D

I was so surprised that they sent me home also. They said my blood work and urine came back normal. I really hope I don't wind up back there tomorrow!
