24 Week Appointment And..

Dr scared me because my already chronic Blood Pressure problem I have and am medicated for was up. It was 116 over 86 which to me isnt too high but he said to a pregnant women it is. So he is making me take precautions "just in case" and go for a 24 hr urine collection to check for proteins and such. (He mentioned the term preclampsia-but said its kind of early for this). If its all good he will just need to up my dose of my BP pills but itmade me so nervous.

Also, since I have two vaginal infections lately he mentioned this can be the start of gestational diabetes. I'm due to go for my 1 hr test in the next few weeks anyway.

What ANXIETY I left with. Trying to stay positive that's its none of this. Only great thing, babies heartbeat was GREATChat Icon
