csection date got bumped up after a long day in L&D

So itblooks like ds will be here in 7 days instead of 18! I am high risk so I have ob and perinatologist appointments 1x per week each. My perinatologist has done nsts for hr past three appointments and each one has been abnormal that has required extra monitoring (his heart rate isn't fluctuating enough). Same thing again today combined with high blood pressure readings from today sent me to L&D. Luckily as soon as I started being monitored up there, baby cooperated and my bp went back to normal. I tested negative for preeclampsia...thank goodness. I have been very stressed lately and I guess it finally came out (related to a family member's health). Luckily I did not need to be delivered tonight, but my Csection has been moved up to next Friday! I can't wait to meet my little chubby cheeked boy who is now weighing in at 7 lbs 11 oz. . 4d pic in baby beano album

so scary .. glad you are okay and YAY for meeting your LO soon!

Re: csection date got bumped up after a long day in L&D

ugh wow HUGS! Can't believe how big he is

Glad there is an end in sight! Can't believe he will be here so soon!

(i had no clue that not enough change in heart rate was abnormal - I know they like to see some change with movement but is usually always in the 150's without much variation. They wait for some change (she goes down a bit and up to 160's but not much change). Odd?)

eta - she measured 5.11 on thursday and I thought that was big

Did you see his cheeks?! He looks so much like my dh. The heart rate line should be very squiggly and he likes to just be. Two bottles of ice water did the trick today.
