I'm having SO much fun with Amelia... hence why I just don't want to pay attention to this... I would be HEARTBROKEN if I had to be readmitted. Oh well I'm going to the doctor on Thursday so we'll see what they say.

<t>So here I am 1 week after Amelia's birth and my blood pressure is higher than it was while I was pregnant! They've started me on blood pressure medication, but it doesn't seem to be coming down. <br/> <br/> Has anyone had this happen? What's the longest it's taken someone to get their blood press...

<r>Well hopefully my experience with PIH is over... we had Amelia Lynn on December 6th via scheduled c-section. She is SUPER healthy, 6 pounds, 10 ounces, 18.25 long and scored a 9 on the Apgar.

Any other thoughts ladies?

<t>Just wanted to say I'm still here too and I'm LOVING my doctor right now. Today was my 35 week apt (been on bed rest for 4 weeks now) and she scheduled my induction for 37 weeks AND after looking at my cervix (high and closed) gave me the option to do a scheduled c-section!! Hubby and I discussed...
