Delivering anywhere from 36w on..

So went to my 34w check up today. And due to my high blood pressure this whole pregnancy, headaches, protein in my urine and rib pain looks like I can be delivering from 36w on. Since I am  only 34w they want me to have 2x a week nst plus once a week appt. And if my bp and headaches dont go away they will decide when is safe to deliver me. I am just hoping I can make it as far as I can. I know in other I said I cant handle 6 more weeks of this but at this point I wish I could. I am hoping to make it far enough that she wont end up in the nicu. I just hope that everything is okay with my baby.

Nope it doesnt just means.there getting ready for birth. The doctor told me I will most likely be having her in the next 2 to 3 weeks. So I have to be monitored very close.
