So I am so happy today as I can blog again about my journey and what a crazy time it has been since I blogged...
Feb 3rd-I finally got into the specialist my OB recommended to see what if anything else could be done about my pressures...if I would have known..
I was admitted to United Hospital that day with the hope of increasing some meds and going home in 2-3 days...well 8 days later here I am but in a bigger room. I have almost tripled the one bp med I was on and anyone who works with me may remember how loopy I was when I did this in the begging, good times. Nothing has really changed them all that much no matter how many meds they keep giving me. I am holding a little more stable for me (pregnant) but not a normal person. I have had a splitting headache for over 2 weeks which is also a huge concern for the doctors right now....I had a head CT and my brain and head is clear and pretty as the dr said...I guess a bonus is no crazy brain tumors right>
The nutty part of this for me has been that my OB has transferred my care and I now 3-4 different drs working on my case and they all had a little different opinion. I finally had it yesterday and told them we need a plan or one idea we are all working on because it is to hard to keep going up and down when I am not really getting better.
I will most likely deliver her on Feb 21st which is over the 32 week point. Sydney is doing wonderful right now going crazy in ribs all day long. She has no harm from this craziness that we can see which is good.
I have met with NICU doctors which is where Sydney will spend the first 4-8 weeks after she is born most likely....they are great and this NICU is the very best in the metro so I am confident with all the people that I have met here that Sydney and I are in good hands....It is a little nerve racking because I am on so many more meds this time that it could take longer to stablize me and my bp and there is a great risk to her at start of csection....good thing I did my last one here so they have my chart and know that I crashed on the table when I got my spinal so they are going to bring a bigger nicu/surgical team in to ensure we get the baby out quickly because when I crash essentially the placenta stops giving her blood....It is scary but we know it so we can be prepared for it right now which I like, having a plan.
Brady has been doing an amazing job with Chloe-I dont get to see them everyday but he is doing so awesome with her....I think this has been good for her so she becomes a little more daddy dependant so when we actually bring Sydney home she is not so mommy, mommy all the time.
I miss them so much, Chloe has only been up a couple of times because my first room was so small miss little destructo had it ripped apart in 5 minutes. I am in a new room and there is more chloe space so that is awesome.
Brady will be able to make it to the state this time as we are having her on Monday so he will be safe to leave on Thursday am if the kids make it.....I am a good wife and sister in-law for making this still work, I think it will come in handy when I want something later:)
I have to go online shop now as I have been without a computer for a week, I will keep you updated if anything changes but I am digging deep to get through the next few days.
