In L&D

Well, went for a Dr appointment and I have high blood pressure. No protein in my urine though. They're monitoring me and I have to do a 24 hour home urine test. I'm 31 weeks.

Being sent home this afternoon hopefully! With a follow up appointment on Monday with my OB to make final decisions on work and monitoring.

They're hoping to send me home with close monitoring. My BP has been regular and baby heart rate has been fine. The protein is what was the cause for concern. That was at 3 a.m. I'm sure I'll know more later. :)

I had the excact same thing happen to me except I was 38 weeks. I did the 24 hour urine at home and I got a call saying to induce immediately the protein was so high in the urine. I delivered the next day. Hopefully you can just stay on bed rest til the time your little one can come.
