Today's Apt

I had to see the cardiologist this morning. I am now not allowed to drive anymore. I am having more passing out issues. So, Im restricted even more. Then I had to go to Dr Scharff's. He is scheduling me for induction next wednesday. 9-9-09. He was going to do tuesday, but he is too booked up in surgery. He told me if he sees anythingn funky going on with my heart or anything out of the norm, then he will not wait it out to see how it goes, he will rush me directly to do a c section. I go back to see him next tuesday then 6am i will have to be at the hospital on wed. Dont want anyone there this time. There were just to many people there with Joshua. We will call or email and let everyone know when we want visitors.

another eventful day.

This morning we went to Lilly's house to play. Then we had my appt with Dr Scharff. My blood pressure was up so he sent me to the hospital. They monitored it for a few hours. and had an ultrasound. I have to do a 24 hour urine test to check for preeclampsia. I am contracting every 2-4 min. uhh. Ill update when I get any results.

Today was an eventful day...

First thing this morning I had physical therapy. Then we went directly to Joshua's dr appt. He has been saying his ear hurts the past few days, then last night he started with the runny nose, coughing and sneezing and a small rash. Seems to be just a virus. No ear infection. Then I had my high risk ob appt. My blood pressure is running a bit high, and at my ultrasound they said the fluid level around her is high. Dr didnt have any coments about either. useless man. anyways they measured her and she is SUPPOSED to be 5 lbs 4 oz at 35 weeks but she is measuring 6 lbs 12 oz. I plan on asking Dr Scharff tomorrow at my appt about the bp and fluid. Ill have some more answers and hopefully an induction date. Should be within the next 2 weeks. oh yea, couldnt get a picture. no good angles. :-(

Yesterday

Yesterday I had my weekly appt with dr scharff. He didn't say much. Then I went over to l&d for my normal tests. I was having contractions. I had about 10 in an hour plus several smaller contractions that "too short" to call contractions. (they must be at least 40 sec. long.) I am now 1cm dialated. So I go back on saturday for more testing like always. So we will see then. Ill try to update more when I know it.

Dr appt today

I had my high risk dr appt today. He thinks I should have her 37-38 weeks. So tomorrow I will talk to dr scharff and see if we can schedule something and if it will be induction or c section. Hopefully they will do it at 37 weeks which will be the week of Sept. 7th. She did not want her face to be seen today, but you can see the pictures (4 of them) here

What a day.....

Well, I had my cardiologist appt this morning. Since my pulse was elevated at rest still, and im passing out quite a bit lately, She is now putting me on bed rest. Not really sure how this is going to do this with Joshua, but we will see. Then I headed to lunch with the play pal group girls. We had no kids and had a little baby shower. It was a great lunch. It was nice to be able to sit down and eat in peace. These ladies are great!! I see Dr. Scharff on wednesday. We will see what he says. Hopefully we can talk about letting me have her early. Here are the very cute gifts I recieved.
