We went to our appointment at noon, my blood pressure was 142/88, which is low, compared to usual higher numbers. No protein in the urine and only +1 pound! I also mentioned to the doctor I am still "dealing" with the headaches.
The doctor immediately suggested not returning to work & bed rest...not what I wanted to hear, I mean I will do anything to keep Baby L safe, but I do not want to miss out on the money, or find myself bored after one day...
We also have to monitor my blood pressure & were sent home with a neon orange jug & hat...that's right, I get to collect my urine for 24 hours--the Dr wants to monitor protein. I am also less than thrilled about this, mostly because I have to keep it "refrigerated or in a cooler with ice.." Big duh to the receptionist at the OB!
Here goes Day .5 of bed rest! :)
