Hello Everyone!
I just wanted to check in with everyone to see how things are going... I am very excited about having Martin Luther King Day off of work tomorrow! I was planning on enjoying a quiet day at home while the kids are @ school, but unfortunately I will be spending the majority of the morning sitting at the lab. I have tests that my OB ordered last week that I have been putting off. I have been collecting urine all day today for a 24 hour test to check for protein (I am worried since they already think that I am starting to show signs of pre-eclampsia)... keep your fingers crossed that this comes back ok because I can't be off of work for at least 6 more weeks (since my sort-term disability only lasts for 3 months!) I also have to have blood drawn whithin 4 hours after the completition of the urinalisis... and THEN I have to do the 1 hour glucouse test... should be a FUN start to my extra day off - NOT! I also have to return to the dr. next Friday because he wants to recheck my blood pressure (since it was high when I was in last week). It is my hope that he has the bloodwork results by then and that things will be fine... I will keep everyone posted.
