Bed Rest

I have 11 days at the most before I have baby Marcus! My blood pressure is high so I am on bed rest for the rest of my pregnancy. Peeky loves having me home and is also on bed rest with me.

Yesterday I went to Melissa's house to catch up on Glee episodes. It was fun to get out of my house and talk to someone. Today I am stuck at home. My doctor has me collecting all my urine today for 24 hours. They gave me this tricky little thing to put in the toilet and then I have to pour it into a big jug. The jug I get to bring to my nurses appointment tomorrow.

I don't know why I have to go into see the nurse to check my blood pressure again. Every time I have to go to the office just to check my blood pressure, it's always high. It's stressful because I want to pass my test, but just getting stressed makes it high!

My doctor wants me to relax at home to keep my blood pressure down. She may induce me next week! At the latest, she won't let me go past my due date now. I'm getting really excited, but I wish I could finish the few things I have to do before Marcus gets here. I'll just have to rely on Michael to help me out!
