Well, looks like I'll at least make it to 35 weeks. My labs today came back stable a my platelet count is actually improving. Yay! I still have high blood pressure, but so far it's not developing beyond that. I can't believe in 2.5 weeks or less I'll have two babies! It's hard to comprehend.
I also found out my cousin who is due 11/11 is already 3cm dilated. Even though she went overdue with her son, she's thinking she'll be early this time. I love that our children will be sooo close in age. We were super close growing up and still are.

Well, I try to be relatively drama-free. Today is not my day.
Woke up at 3am to severe back/side pain. I tried walking/sitting/bouncing/kneeling, everything made it worse. Heat didn't help. Ice didn't help. Ended up going to the ER. They got me in fluid, Zofran and morphine. The morphine would help for about 20 minutes, then the pain would come back worse! Even with Zofran I threw up 3 times. So then I got to ride an ambulance to L&D at my hospital, 25 minutes away. Had multiple blood draws and urine samples. I found a perfect spot on my side that keeps the pain at about a 3, but then the ultrasound tech came to look at my bladders and kidneys, and it all went to hell.
I'm literally crying, begging for pain meds. The doctor on call won't give anything until he examines me. In an hour and a half or so. Finally got up and around, and got a heat pack on me side. Back down to a 4 or so in pain. Waiting for the doc.
Everyone so far is thinking kidney stones, which apparently is one of the worst things and pregnant woman can have, because they can't do anything AT ALL until the baby is delivered - which she's obviously not ready for. So I'm laying in the hospital, in pain, waiting to be seen by a jackass doctor. I miss my OB
