Update!! @ 34 Weeks
Posted: 05-28-05 11:01am

Hey guys well sorry I havent been around... I been having a lot of preggy problems! Yuck! About 2 weeks ago I went into the Dr. For some swelling that I was having that I couldnt get to go away... So I get there and they tell me that my blood pressure is way to high and the swelling is conserning! ... So they sent me over to the hospital... Talk to the docs there.. And my blood pressure would not come down... So they decided to admit me... They said the baby.. Looked good! Well during my stay they decided to do an ultrasound.... I was so excited I hadnt seen gavin in for ever!! So we get down there and the tech is looking around... Well he found that the cord was wrapped several times... And that the cord pressure was high... They ranked it about a 3... Talked to the doc afterwards... He said that many times the cord is wrapped... And gave me all the warnging signs... They said that since I was high risk now.. And showing signs of preeccalmpsia ... That they will deliver at 36 weeks... I was 32 when I went in to the hospital... They put me on strict bed rest..And on high blood pressure med 3 times a day!! They also gave me steriod shots so the babys lungs would develop faster... So I have been on bed rest this whole time... Well im now just about 34 weeks... (monday) well this last thursday I went in for my nst and ultrasound ... I have to go twice a week... Well thursday I went in... Did my ultra sound.. Which came back my amniotic fluid is low..And the cord pressure went up to a 4.5... So I have to go in this monday... And do it again..If its the same or worse they are going to induce.... And they have to do c-section.. Bc gavin is breech! Geez im so scared... But I have good faith that everything will come out okay...
Hope every ones is doing good!!

I delivered naturally at 36 week, my daughter was born healthy, and I left the hospital 2 days later.
I hope your baby is just as healthy, even if born a few weeks early.

Good luck on monday.
