    OK, so mostly everything is going well (baby measuring good and heartbeat good). But, my BP was elevated (very unlike me!), my legs are very swollen and I have gained 12 lbs in the past 3 weeks (definitely NOT good!). So, off to the lab for blood work. I guess they are looking for preeclampsia. I guess I will find out in a few days.

    Hop its not pre-e! Get your feet up as that will help with the swelling.

    Keep us updated! I agree I definitely hope it's not pre-e.

    :hug99: I'm sorry your appt. didn't go very well. You must be feeling horrible! :hug99: I hope you can do something about it! (sounds like a good excuse to stay in bed all day & be pampered!)

    No, he didn't ask me to do one. I don't think I am spilling protein.

    I wish!! DH is working a ton this week, so not an option. I am actually not feeling too bad. At least I am at 35 weeks if they decide to section me early, I know the baby would be ok.
