I'm glad I listened to my gut.
Sunday evening I came upstairs and felt....off. it didn't feel like my usual pots flare up. It felt different. Worse.
Checked my bp and it was wild high. And I wasn't tachy.
Monitored from 6pm till like 2am and I was high bp all night.
Monday lowered to normal so I thought, maybe I'm fine and just over exerted myself yesterday cuz I was up and bustling from 345am till 6pm when I went up to rest.
Midday I started getting cluster contractions which spiked my bp higher and higher. My gut told me to get checked out.
Glad I did because after evaluation and monitoring it's a severe pre-eclampsia situation. I've been admitted, I'm on bp meds which HAVE stabilized me.
They're going to start pre-induction meds here within the next 30 minutes (i think) so we'll see how that goes.
Since this all hit unexpectedly..... my husband is stuck at work. The only one on shift. In the middle of a massive project. Alone. His only coworker is on vacation. His supervisor doesn't answer his phone for anything.
I'm facing possibly solo labor and I'm hating every second of this looming over me.....
