Earlier this week, I wasn't feeling very well. I had my sister bring over a blood pressure monitor since at my last doctors visit I was told my blood pressure was a little high. I checked my blood pressure and it was 160/105. I called the doctors office and since they were closing in 5 minutes, the nurse told me to go up to labor and delivery to be monitored. Two and a half hours later, after having my blood drawn and being given some Tylenol, they sent me home and told me to do a 24 hour urine sample so they could test for proteins. I still haven't heard back about the results but I'm assuming it's fine.
I am so anxious for the arrival of our little angel. I'm nervous because I know everything is going to be drastically changing in a few days. Every time I get upset and think this baby will never come out, I stop myself and think.."Enjoy these last few days, relax and take it all in." Only a few more days of lounging around with my husband, sleeping in, making split second decisions and being able to be somewhat selfish. It scares the heck out of me, thinking that my whole life is going to do a 180 in a matter of a week! Justin is so supportive and calms me down and reassures me that everything is going to be okay. He's so great. I always get myself in such a panic and he's always there to get me grounded again. I honestly don't know what I'd do without him. He's SO excited to be a dad!
Despite all the nerves and panic, worry and anxiety, I can not wait to meet my little girl. I can't wait to add another person to our family and I wouldn't change a thing. I know the second I see her it will all be worth it!
