9 more weeks?

I have nothing to write. My brain is on vacation. Here, enjoy a belly picture :)

UPDATE 9/18:

So much for having nothing to write...

As of this morning, my "borderline" blood pressures have gone up to put me in a danger zone. I'm officially on bed rest. I start twice weekly NSTs, I'm sure with 24 hour urine collections and blood work. I have an NST and follow up appointment with my doctor on Friday, at which time I want to discuss the possibility of medication before forced bed rest.

Let's face it, bed rest is NOT conducive to life with a two year old. Jack's next two months are going to be filled with movies and a lot of independent play time. This week, Todd and I have to figure out a schedule that works for us. He can't take any time off to take care of Jack, so I'm somewhat on my own until help arrives. We're going to handle this in much the same manner as we handled bed rest while I was pregnant with Jack, with some minor tweaks (like getting Jack to daycare). At least I will have another person to talk to this time around. Two, once my mother-in-law arrives. 

The doctor I saw at L&D today didn't put me at ease. She brought up steroids, which Jack never needed, and talked about how hmmm....she wasn't going to deliver me today and that she wants to keep Nina in for "at least" 3-4 more weeks. I upped that estimate to at least 6 more weeks, until she could be considered full term. She advised me to remain optimistic. I am a bit surprised by how she approached the situation, considering she'd just told me how good my blood work was. My blood pressure had dropped to an acceptable 130/80 (with Jack, as soon as I rolled to my left side, my pressures dropped to the 110/70s, so this is a bit high for me). 

We always considered bed rest a possibility. I'm pretty sure I wrote about it, and our contingency plan. I'm going to hope that this pregnancy will end like Jack's, with baby being pretty much unaffected by the high blood pressure. So far, she has been showing no signs of growth issues, so that's good. Despite the high blood pressure, a 2 week period of high fluids, and being delivered 3.5 weeks early, Jack was a healthy 7lb 4oz baby. We're expecting the same of Nina.
