The doctors are testing me for preclampsia because i have been having really bad headaches, back aches and starting to swell. the dr ask me to come in this morning and they ran a bunch of blood test and took my blood pressure. i only gained 1lb in 2 weeks.
we found out that the baby's head is in the down position and he is measuring in at 34 weeks. the dr believes that he is a big baby and wants to have a baseline for bloodwork so he can keep an eye on it.
he also mentioned that if it comes back that if i have a slight case of preclampsia that we will talk about delivering him at 37-38 weeks.. which means he will be here in the beginning of september.
now i am on an every week dr appointment schedule. i just want everything to be ok with the baby and hope that i do go full term so he gets full 'cooking' time.
