Well, I'm back home after a long day at the doctor's office and hospital. My blood pressure at the doctor's office was 147/92, so I was sent to the hospital for more tests. I got to the hospital right before 12 and was hooked up to monitors to check my blood pressure, the baby's heartbeat, and contractions. I had a lot of contractions while I was there (every 5-8 minutes), so they decided to do an internal. I was dilated to 1 cm. After about an hour, the nurse told the doctor on call that my blood pressure had gone down and the baby was fine. They checked my urine sample, and everything came back normal. After another hour, I was told to go home and make an appointment with a different doctor since my doctor was still in the hospital.
When I got home, I received a phone call from my original doctor's nurse. He will be back in the office on Thursday. I have an appointment with him on Thursday. I also have an appointment with other doctor on Thursday if Houseworth isn't doing surgeries. I will find out more tomorrow about who will actually be performing my c-section which will be planned for early next week. So at the latest, next Tuesday, Bryan and I will finally know if we will have a baby boy or girl!!! I'll keep everyone posted when I find out more!! Cross your fingers that my doctor will be able to perform my c-section!
