Well, my Dr.'s appointment could have gone better. No need for alarm, the babies are fine, but my BP was up and I have some slightly elevated liver enzymes. I went to the appointment right after a rather stressful morning at work and I got there and my BP was 140/80, the nurse did a urine test and it was negative for protein and glucous, but I have to do the 24 hour urine test on Sunday (literally, I have to keep all of my urine for 24 hours in a jug - nasty!) Then I did the blood test which came out with elevated SGPT/ALT liver enzymes. My OB told his nurse to tell me that he wasn't overly concerned, but I should rest all weekend and they would retest on Monday. Needless to say, I was freaking out after the appointment. However, my OB told me to get a BP monitor and my DH bought one after work and after laying on the couch a couple of hours we took the BP and it was 121/75. The one sort of silver lining was that my iron levels are still low, but have gotten better, so these iron supplements are sort of working for me.

So, I am definitely feeling better, but my DH and my mom have pretty much told me that I need to quit work soon and my MFM, I have a feeling will say the same thing. I am going to see him on Monday, for my anatomy scan so hopefully I will get some more answers then. I do have a feeling that this is at least partially to do with my stressful work environment, and I am prepared to do whatever to make sure I carry these babies as long as possible.

Well, sorry for the long update. I hope everyone has a fabulous Friday night!
