I went back to the doctor on Monday and got amazing results from all the tests they ran. I had to take another one of those protein/urine tests to check if there was any protein in my urine (there was not) and my kidney function was on target! Also, last week I was tested for gestational diabetes--that came back negative--thanks for the prayers everyone!! Also, we came to the conclusion that my blood pressure being so high is caused by "white coat syndrome"...meaning it's really high when I go to the doctor, but when I take it at home it's alot better--I even took my wrist monitor to the doctor's office to make sure it was reading the same as theirs was... sure enough it was! What a relief. I'm still retaining ALOT of fluid though--- you guys should see my ankles, I mean cankles!!!!! Ha-Ha, I crack myself up!
Anyways, I feel great! My belly is finally looking like a prego belly, not just a fat girl! Nothing much new. I have another ultrasound on Monday to check her growth and weight, then I go back to the doctor the next Tuesday. He wants to start seeing me once a week to keep an eye on my blood pressure.
I also registed for lamaze classes that start in January! That should be fun! I'm borrowing my friend's husband for a coach! He's actually excited about it--go figure!!! Talk to everyone soon! Have a great week! Jamie
