Spent a few hours in the hospital last night *UPDATE*
UPDATE: Went to the Doctor yesterday to drop off my urine & have more blood work done. Unfortunetly I have to wait until friday for the results of both, but my pressure was fine and I didn't have a headache or any other symptoms so they sent me home. Praying the results turn out okay on Friday!  Thanks for all your prayers ladies!!
_______________________________________
due to an extreme headache that was causing blurred vision.
After many blood pressure checks (which were fine, not high at all), monitoring of the baby (whos heart beat was strong as can be ), blood work, & urine.. it turns out I have protein in my urine and may be the start of pre-eclampsia.
I am doing a 24 hour urine and have to go in the doctors tomorrow for more blood and blood pressure monitoring.
Hoping it's just a fluke and everything is fine, but we shall see.
Hopefully I'll have a better update tomorrow after the doctors so please say some prayers for me because even though i'm 35 weeks, I would like for my little to stay in there longer and develop more!!

Lots of
I hope you're feeling better and get a 100% clean bill of health so baby can cook longer!
I did the 24 hour urine sample... it's FUN! You'll LOVE it! (sense sarcasm). Here's a tip... pee in a paper cup and pour it in the jug. Don't try to pee directly in the jug.

LOL oh i'm having a blast already they actually gave me this thing you put in the toilet and pee in that. It has an indent where to pour it into the jug so it's actually easier that way cuz there was no way I was peeing right in the jug.

Re: Spent a few hours in the hospital last night
Ugh I hope everything works out and that it's not preeclampsia. I'm almost 29 weeks and I just did the 24 hour urine, also. My BP is fine but I have decreased urine output and a ton of swelling. It's awful...I just hope if I do have it, I can hang in for another 8 weeks! Keep us posted!!

Re: Spent a few hours in the hospital last night
thanks so much ladies! My appointment is at 3pm so I will update, but I woke up with some pretty swollen hands today, so i'm pretty sure that's not good! Just hoping everything will turn out okay!
