Bed rest is not for those with wimpy backs! Especially pregnant ones! If only I could lay on my back it might be ok!
So as you may have guessed, I'm still on bedrest for the weekend, bummer. Baby and I are just fine, it's just my blood pressure likes to be elevated if I'm sitting upright. Kevin and I sat in labor and delivery last night for about two hours to monitor me and baby as far as this blood pressure stuff goes. All testing came back clear that I do not have "pregnancy induced hypertension" which is REALLY good news, we just need to rest a lot. I went from 144/94 sitting up to 116/60 laying down. So they let us go home with strict orders that I have to rest and recline as much as possible, no shopping and no house cleaning.
...and that is this weekend's friendly update.
