Update on Me
So My Dr just called me. As some of you may remember, I spent a few hours in L&D about 3 weeks ago because I thought I had broke my water. Turns out I didnt break my water, but while I was there they found traces of protein in my urine and my blood pressure was high. They had me do a 24 hour urine collection the next day. The urine collection came back boarderline, but my dr was not all that concerned. Since then, my blood pressure has been normal.
So, My Dr had me re-do the 24 hour urine collection last Friday. I just heard back from the Dr today- and my urine came back over 100pts higher than my previous test. It is now over what she feels comfortable with. Even though my BP is normal, she has seen instances where people really are pre-eclamptic, but only have one marker (my case being high protein)
So, tonight, I have to go for some monitoring- I am having an ultrasound to check my fluids, and they are also going to do a NST. I am going to have them weekly until my due date (which is only 2.5 weeks away).
Hopefully everything will be ok!!!!!

Re: Update on Me
 I had high BP starting in my 33rd week. I had to do the 24 hour urine test (what fun!  ) and go for weekly NSTs.
You'll be ok- you are so close to your due date that the baby will be fine if they decide to induce. I was induced at 39 weeks and she was healthy and my BP issues resolved themselves within a few weeks.
