33 Weeks 2 Days

We had our weekly Dr appt and fetal monitoring today.  Blood pressure, weight and protein in urine are still good.  It was a short visit, he did an ultrasound to look at the hearts and made sure there was still good fluid surrounding them.  Everything was looking so good he decided he didn't need to do a pelvic exam.

The Dr did send me home with test strips to check my urine for traces of protein and I will have to do this daily.  If the protein level is high, it could be a sign of preeclampsia.  We are praying that I will not have any complications arise and that all will be well when I arrive at the hospital.

My Dr will be leaving Friday with his family to Puerto Rico for a week, so I will be seeing a nurse practitioner for next weeks appt.  I'm praying that we can make it to the c-section date so my Dr will be there.  I can't believe we will see these precious little ones in 2 weeks!
