Hi I wanted to Thank everyone for remembering me on my birthday I was very touched by that. I hate to make this a mass email but I am on bedrest right now, and I can't really be online for a long time, I have to be lying down with my lower body higher than my head, makes it hard to type.
I am asking for prayers for this new unborn baby. I am 38 weeks. Went to weekly prenatal checkup and my protein urine test came up at the highest level. This can indicate a serious and possibly dangerous condition called preeclampsia. or who knows what else.I worry more cause I do not have the other symptoms of preeclampsia, so it makes me wonder what it could be. Then she did a more in depth check and felt that the baby was in breech position which is not good this far along, baby due date is in 2 weeks. So we did u/s and sure enough baby is breech. So then I had to go to hospital to get like 6 different blood tests, which worries me, and I have to do this 24 hour urine sampling. I am also now on bedrest. Which is torture for me, I am not the type to lay around. . I spoke with the dr. today and she said the blood tests are coming back good so far, they aren't all back.
Now I worry all over again that the baby is not going to be normal.
I k now Woe is Me !!!! I need to just give it up to God, my life is blessed. I just want a healthy baby and a healthy natural delivery. May have to have a c-section if baby doesn't turn and so much could go wrong.
On a happy note, an update on my brother Edgar in Kuwait. Edgar is great, he emailed the other day, he works 7 days a week, super busy but he is happy cause it makes the time go quickly. He has been there a month already. He said New Years was an experience, the wholde sky was lit up with fireworks and machine gunfire!
