But there is good news....At this point, I do not have preclampsia....At least not yet. Although my weight gain is suspicions, my blood pressure is 99/60....So doctors are not worried, yet...And I keep hearing "yet".....But I am trying to be optimistic.....Its never a good time to have preclampsia, however, if you know me, and knew the situation we're in right now....You would know this is REALLY not the time for bed rest!!!!
My doctors had me on a strict diet last week in hopes my weight gain was really just "weight gain" and not something else. They were hoping I would lose a few (yes, it was OK for me to actually lose a few LBS and still have the baby be OK). I knew this was not going to work....Seeing as my diet was fine beforehand (doctors of course did not believe me)..... And sure enough, I felt like I starved myself for NOTHING! I did not lose a pound. Needless to say, after tons of tests, it looks like I just retain water really easily. Mainly because my input and output are far from equal. Hence why my doctor gasped when she saw me. Lets just say I am very unattractive right now.
Oh....And I am back to having a girl. No, Kory did not tell me....He actually has been sooooo good!!! But, another midwife did something really stupid and lets just say, my "surprise" keeps getting ruined!!!
I am happy though.....Alexa needs a playmate. It will be fun :)
