Update

We had another appointment with the doctor today. My blood pressure is still a kind of high, and my swelling is still pretty bad. Our next regular appointment is next Thursday, but she doesn't want to wait that long to see us again. She asked if we could come in to L&D on Sunday morning to do more lab work, check my blood pressure, and do an NST (non-stress test - we've been doing these every week for a while.) Basically, if things are looking worse at that point as far as the pre-eclampsia goes, we'll end up delivering on Sunday or Monday!! (oh my gosh!!!) If things are still looking okay, we have a biophysical profile (ultrasound) on Thursday. For this, they give the baby scores in 5 different areas. If he scores high, that means he's doing okay, and will likely make it until our original c-section date (April 8th). If he scores low, it could mean that he's not doing well, which would mean we deliver that day! So basically, it could be Sunday, Thursday, or our original date of April 8th. Who knows at this point? Surprisingly, I'm not really stressed out about it. If it ends up being Sunday, great! (We have a bassinet, who cares if the nursery isn't done!) If we wait until the 8th, that's great too, because it means he's doing well in there, and he can use the extra time to "bake". I'll keep you posted of course...it could be SOON!!! =)
