    Babies are still baking and still doing well! I've been having some issues, but nothing that has me being rushed off into the OR.

    My BP has been spiking, but my bottom number has stayed under 100 which is decent. This morn I was feeling like total crap and ask for some phenergen. She checked my blood sugar and it was 48! So they are going back on my insulin a little which I've been wondering about for a week or so because my fasting readings are always quite a bit under target but I actually have a snack and it isn't REALLY an 8 hour fasting.... more like 5 or 6.

    Anyhoose... I am hanging in there. As long as my BP stays under 160's/110's, and the girls stay on the good side, we will see them on the 18th!!!!

    Thanks again for all the well wishes. It makes a difference!!!!

    High BP is such a pain! You feel totally fine but that number seems to rule your life. Hang in there. Your girls will be with you soon. By 2 weeks post partum my BP was back to totally normal numbers after a high of 180/100 during labor. It gets better!
