    With my blood pressure issues my OB thinks it will be safer to do a c section so all of my VBAC plans went out of the window yesterday. My blood pressure was elevated again yesterday byt came down pretty quick. We believe I have white coat syndrome??? Anyway if ipat 36 weeks or more it continues to remain elevated and they cannot get it down my dr will take the baby sooner but hopefully hopefully hopefully he will stay put until the day we scheduled which will be July 21 !!!!! That will be 38 weeks 6 days!! And 8 weeks from today!!!

    150/98 is what it was when they admitted me. It was 140/90 at first and went up to 150/98 so I had to stay. In the hospital it stayed around 122/73.
    I have been taking it at home and it has been great 116/73 is right around where it stays. Yesterday at my dr appointment it was 150/90 again but this time instead of remaining high it went down to 136/83 which is still elevated but not to the point of needing to be hospitalized. I hope I just have white coat syndrome and not a real problem.

    Mine is always higher when I first arrive due to hustling to get there! Then it settles down. I did have higher BP w/ the boys so I'm nervous!

    Good luck!

    Wow, I probably haven't been on Twinstuff in over a year. Congrats Heather! Do you have a thread that announced the pregnancy?

    HI PAM!!!! It is so nice to see you on TS again!!!!!!! I think there is one but it was kind of a process that many knew about, I did a FET so I really can't remember if I officially announced it or not LOL!! I am due July 29 but because of my blood pressure issues they are going to do a c section July 21. My OB told me today to not be shocked if she decided to take him at 36 weeks.which terrifies me.
