Hi all. Just checking in. It's taken an hour to catch up.
Congratulations to Natty & Ellen and good luck to lilkel.
Thought your post was lovely foxy, there was me thinking the more children I have the less I like them. Nice to be proved wrong.
DH was at home today and has done some stuff (mostly his ordering for work and the rest "half-jobs" leaving the other half for me to finish becasue "he wasn't sure what I was doing with...". He has assembles the cot though.) I am because he went into work over two hours ago to say he would be back tomorrow and hasn't come home yet. Hope he isn't getting sacked...
I have had an odd day. Enforced rest makes me feel VERY ill indeed and having spent the afternoon in bed and feeling worse we have been to the maternity unit at the hospital tonight to get checked over (DH got a call from work to ask him to go in tonight and he made me ring the hospital before he rang to say he wasn't going in, I'm sure he should havebeen able to do that in his own mind).
Anyway, blood taken (that's twice today - they're not having any more), peed in more pots than you would believe, still have a little protein but no blood today. BP still up a bit and still have a few black floaters. Babys heartbeat monitored for ages and was between 128-161 so that's ok. Dr said nothing sinister was going on anyway and was happy to let me come home. So DHs mind at rest, and I DON'T HAVE TO REST UNLESS I WANT TO (which I don't cos it makes me feel like shite.)
Hospital midwives are lovely...
Must go, DH home and getting me some food (and a cold beer for the stress...
BTW my sister lives in NZ and it's great. Other sister lived in Adelaide for 13 years and is back here in the grim north. I prefer NZ but can't afford to live anywhere nice...
Night all, good luck with those poos...
