Counting Down the Days!



Gina- 36 weeks

I have no excuse for not updating this. I am at home on bed rest and absolutely HATE being trapped at home. I know it's what's best for me and baby, but man it stinks!

Currently I am 36 weeks and 3 days pregnant. I am being watched closely for preeclampsia due to high blood pressure and protein in my urine. I have been back and forth to the hospital to get IV fluids and have tests done about 3 times this last month. The good thing is that with rest and blood pressure medication, it seems to be controlled.

I really could have this baby any day! Depending on my blood pressure, I could be induced as early as 37 weeks and they won't let me go past 39 weeks. Pretty soon we'll get to meet our sweet baby girl. The longer she stays in the better, so hopefully she'll continue to cook for a little bit longer.

I can't believe it's already been a month since Jillian got to hold her baby boy in her arms for the first time. He is such a sweetie and she is a great mama! I am hoping they'll come visit me soon, so I can hold that little man in my arms. He really is a good looking baby!

Hopefully next time I update this, I'll have a birthing story to share. A good one I hope!

Here is a pic of us just before Jillian went into Labor - I can't wait for our babies to meet and fall in love :).
