Still having high blood pressure

I had my doctors appointment today and will have to go back again on Wednesday. Good news, I'm dialated to a 3! Bad news...I still have high blood pressure and my cervix is still a little thick. Hopefully within the next two days I can relax or go into labor. If I don't change, she will probably try to induce me and I'm really trying to avoid that. I was hoping to go for a walk tonight, but it looks like it's going to storm. I will also be avoiding work, well tomorrow I plan on going in for a couple of hours to tie up loose ends, but then I will try to relax and take a nap or something. We'll see....keep your fingers crossed.

38 weeks & Grounded...

I had my 38 week OB check up today and they have determined that my blood pressure is too high. I have been put on temporary bed rest and will have my bp checked on Saturday (I'm supposed to go to Labor & Delivery) to have them check it and then I am to see my midwife again on Monday for follow up. They are very strict and even drew blood to ensure I do not have toxemia. I was also put on the monitor for 15 minutes to make sure Mya was doing well. She is doing wonderful and I am progressing well. I am dilated 2 cm, 50% effaced and her head is at a -2 station. It appears we are moving in the right direction and hopefully (keeping my fingers crossed) Mya will come early.
