today we went in for my 37 week check with my OB. Seems my blood pressure was high and I had retained 5 pounds of fluid from the week before. So I was sent over to Labor and Deliver (jeesh) for some tests. They did an ultrasound to check the fluids around the baby, did 30 minutes of him on a HR monitor and monitored my BP for 1 hour. They took some blood for platelet count and liver function. Those came back OK so he decided to put me on some meds to try and bring the BP down. I go back for observation friday. So fingers are crossed for him to cook a couple more weeks. Plus OB put me on 'limited activity' which means couch chilling until further notice. Poo!
