I just looked at the countdown at the bottom of my sidebar and noticed that there are only 49 days left before my due date. I can't believe how soon that is!
On a more depressing note, I went to my doctor's office yesterday morning (not a regularly scheduled appointment) because I was getting worried about how swollen my feet and ankles are. Nothing has been helping - water, feet up, etc. Well, they took my blood pressure and it is high. They also had me urinate in a cup to test for protein and found that too. So, they have diagnosed me with Pregnancy Induced Hypertension. I had to bring a jug home to collect my urine over the past 24 hours. I have to take it in this morning and have my blood drawn. I really need to talk to the doctor today though because last night my fingers and toes actually turned blue. I'm beginning to panic a bit. If I develop Pre-eclampsia they might put me on bedrest and deliver the baby early. Keep your fingers crossed for me. I will update more when I get home.
