Re : late news: baby is home!
So happy Ismael is home!!! Wonderful news!! Isn't it just wonderful being up all night taking care of a baby? I'm exhausted, but I LOVE every minute with my little boy!
Sorry about the high post partum BPs. I have something similar going on (delivered at 35w6d due to oligo and BP spiked 1 week PP). Hopefully your MFM can offer some insight. I wish I had asked for pathology report on my placenta; I have to think it is related to PE.
Congratulations again!!

I'm so happy for you!
I'll be interested to hear what your doctor thinks about the placenta!

So glad baby is home safe! Maybe see if they will put you on a diuretic pill? Worked wonders for me I had 31 lbs of fluid lost in a week!

Sleep when the baby sleeps!

Oh how wonderful! Glad to hear baby is home with you!
I had bad swelling in my lower legs after delivery, but I was told this was normal(?). Hope your labs will normalize soon and your BP behaves.

Enjoy being home together.
Re : late news: baby is home!
Whoo hoo!!! So glad to hear that he's already home with you. It's funny - when my girls were brand new & I was so tired, those middle of the night feedings just seemed to drag on - and then before I'd hardly closed my eyes they needed to eat again. Rinse, repeat day after day, week after week. Gosh it seemed like they would never sleep through 4 hours straight much less a whole night! But you know what? I think back to that time & would do it all over again because those middle of the night times when it's just you two are so precious.
I am so happy for you!!!

Ismael Jr. came home with us from the NICU on saturday (after 4 days), and today he is one week old.
My bp went up on sunday, and I have developed pitting edema from the knees down (did not swell at all during the pregnancy). ER bp's were 150's/90's so not too bad. ER doc said my labs were up slightly, but still within normal range--so no official PE diagnosis, just got my meds adjusted and that seems to have done the trick so far.
The swelling has gotten a little better, and hopefully my bp will go back to normal and I can cut back on my meds to my pre-pregnancy dose.
In the meantime, needless to say I am exhausted---but loving it! I can't believe I have an earth baby.
** oh by the way--the placental pathology report is back and the placenta had some calcifications and infarcts in it (blood clots), so I am sure I was headed in the PE direction. Since all my underlying disorders came back negative I an interested to see what my peri has to say about this. I will talk to her in August when she comes back from medical leave---grr...**** preeclampsia!
