So Friday night I had a really bad headache, which lasted most of the night. Of course after finding out my blood pressure was climbing I was very concerned cuz i'm not one who gets headaches very often. So I called my midwife and she said to meet her at the hospital, that she wanted to do a NST and do my PIH blood work(pregnancy induced high bloodpressure). So After a fun 2.5 hours in the hospital waiting around for results...looksl like everything is good. I had a trace amount of protein spillage in my blood but nothing of concern. My blood pressure was good the 3 times they took it. My hemoglobin has skyrocketed which is awesome!!!!
So now we just wait and see, technically I could go back to having a homebirth with where things are sitting but we all know how things can change in a couple of days or weeks. So right now I will plan for things as they come. If things are looking good in labour and my blood pressure is good I could stay home, if it starts to climb we go to the hospital. It's nice to know that My midwife will be with me either way.
Either way I am very happy about how things are going right now, I am getting excited about meeting my baby and not stressing of what may or may not be. I plan to have a beautiful birth no matter where or when.

: for low BP.
: What great news! Glad you are doing so well!
What awesome news that headache brought you. It is really hard to decide what to do when things go south and then all of a sudden get better when you know they *could* get worse again. Best of luck with whatever you decide.
: Keeping you in my thoughts mama.
