3D Picture...
Deakon's profile....
We had two appointments on Tuesday and one today. The first appointment on Tuesday went well. Blood pressure was 140/82...pretty good. They monitored the baby for about 30 minutes and he looked great. Then they did a biophysical on him and everything looked good. After that appointment I was off to see my regular doctor. By the time I got there my blood pressure was 179/92, so my nurse went and got my doctor. He came in and took it again, where it was still 170/90....still high...damn. He was ready to send me back to the hospital, when I kindly reminded him that I had been up and on my feet for about 3 hours that morning and I'm certain thats why it was elevated. He smiled and told me to lay on my side for a few minutes. Then took my pressure again and it was 152/92. So better...he decided to let me go home since I was going back to see the specialist on thursday. He advised that I should talk to her about steriod shots and that he could deliver me any day now at this rate. So, on to Thursday. I went back this afternoon, and blood pressure was 142/94. Not bad, but slowly going up everytime I go in Dr. Papa said. So, she suggested I get my first steriod shot. Right in the hip!! Ouuccchhh!! I go back in tomorrow for my second. They did measure him today in the sono instead of just doing a bio physical and he weighed in at 3 pounds 10 ounces! She said she is hoping to wait until 34 weeks, but doesn't feel comfortable that I will make it, hence the steriod shots. We go back to see both on Tuesday. So, keep your fingers crossed this little stinker stays in longer!!!

Good luck in the next few weeks/days! Hopefully, he's not stubborn and want to make his debut sooner than necessary.
