Edema

Well here are the most beautiful feet in the world! Ha just kidding, oh my I never thought that I would have such enourmous feet and ankles and well legs. I went to the doctor Tues 26th and my blood pressure was high and had protein in the urine, so I am back on bedrest. But luckily my blood work came back as being normal, so no toxemia, just high blood pressure. I had gained 5 pounds in week and the doctor was a little worried. So I went back on Wednesday, still high blood pressure, but they did an NST for the baby and he is doing just fine, which is good. Went back yesterday and blood pressure still up but I did lose 1.5 pounds, which is good. I am chugging water and staying down but its the pits cause I really don't think Tate is going to come.
He is perfectly content hanging out where he is.




I miss my ankles, I never thought I would miss them so much!

I feel for you friend. I was the exact same way with Carson. From 36 weeks on I was on bedrest, but like you my high blood pressure never turned into toxemia. So thats good at least. No worries though, you will be amazed at how soon you start to look like yourself again after the baby is born. You will get your cute tiny feet back I swear.

My feet were the same way! Mark said you looked like me when I was pregnant, lol. There's just no more room for Tate to grow in your little petite body!
