Blood pressure is still high and I am still seeing my doctor every 2 weeks. Christopher is still measuring 2 weeks behind as well. A part of me doesn't really think he is 2 weeks behind though. Although I am not a doctor and I don't pretend to be, but I feel he is positioned more towards the back of my body as opposed to the front. Alot of women where I work who have given birth to boys explained to me that they were showing on the small side b/c boys position themselves differently. Whether or not there is any valid proof in this, I have no idea. But it makes sense that Christopher is positioned further back b/c he absolutely loves to play with my bladder throughout the day (I think it is his favorite thing to do!) Almost to the point where I literally think that I will pee my pants and when I get to the bathroom, hardly anything comes out. So when the doc does his "fundal" measurements, he is really only measuring the outside of my belly, not really knowing how the baby is positioned. Just my thoughts!
This weekend was a little stressful for me since we started moving our rooms around in the house to make room for Christopher. Perhaps this was the cause of my high blood pressure. My doctor asked me if my job was stressful and if I wanted him to write me a note out of work, but I declined b/c I have no idea what I would do with myself for 2 months away from work waiting for baby! I've already told myself that I will only go out on bedrest when the doctor no longer gives me the option. I think this whole BP thing is manageable and I am trying not to get myself so worked up over the little things. Hopefully this will work for my next appointment.
On another note, I can't believe I have only 11 more weeks to go!! Next week will be 30 weeks. Crazy!! From this point on I will focus on one week at a time, for the sake of my BP and my little Christopher. We need to keep him in there for as long as possible!!
