Bed rest due to blood pressure. :(

I have to have a NST twice a week and an ultra sound once a week till baby arrives. Was told that I may not be allowed to pass 40 weeks because of the bp.

I have a cm left to efface and I haven't dilated at all. Having good contractions though!
 
Oh wow that sucks.. No more walking to bring on labour. Take it easy and keep us posted
 
wow Jo, that is full on!! and to think it started pretty good!

Armywife, hope your doing ok, not long to go hopefully!
 
Here is my scan pic !!! The babys heart rate today was 169!!:cloud9:

Thanks for the guess rosabelle!! Now that the baby is taking form I'm starting to get more curious :)
 
Thanks for reading rosa! Was it u who was saying abut bf problems? Or have u started to make the switch now? My advice iss to find ur own method of bfing.. The mws keep trying to change my hold and way of attatching but georgia doesnt like it, we found our own way!
Armywife that sucks about the bedrest but sounds like ur progressing towards labour!

Skeet i think boy :blue:

hi kitcat long time no speak! Hope ur doin ok, wish u were here with me and skeet! X
 
skeet team blue, DS first hb was in the 130s and then went to the 160s.
 
Thanks girls!! It's nice to hear of a boy hb being the same as mine most people I know say a girl has a high hb :) either way I'd be happy as long as my baby is healthy .. Especially with the struggles I had to get pregnant and make it this far :)
 
Army, I had to do NSTs and take it easy as well due to slightly high bp in the dr's office during the last weeks of pregnancy. And I had to get induced at 39 weeks due to mild pre-eclampsia (only urine showed, during NSTs bp was perfect). If you are being seen at a military hospital, they tend to be over cautious.

So heres my question if I don't show any pre-eclampsia or toxemia do I really need to be induced or could I request to be allowed to go on? They wanted to induce me next week but because I stood my ground in previous appointments they gave me another week. This leads me to believe it's not really unnecessary to be induced at this point (unless those show up).

Yea its a military hospital. I have been reading up on it and discussing it with my mother (who did develop toxemia) and I haven't found anything that says I need to have it solely for high bp. just ugggh this sucks! I don't want a bunch of interventions but they are all ready to do them even though I am ok and so is baby.

My tests all came back clean yesterday. Still waiting on one I am doing now. Also my ultrasound was good and my nst was great. They never got a high reading on it once.
 
you can stand your ground. for my next pregnancy, i will not get induced. It sucked and took over 24 hours. I have high bp when i go to the dr always, but as a precaution they made me do what you are.
They will try and scare you but as long as you are being monitored, you should be fine to go into labor naturally.
