very eventful Dr's appt
well, jordan may be making his appearance sooner than later. went to the dr's this morning with a lot of swelling and they checked my blood pressure...it was high. checked it again 2 more times on both arms and it remained up there. i had a blood test and will be doing a 24 hr urine test. if results are positive for pre-eclampsia i'll be induced sometime next week!!!!! wow.
also found out i tested positive as a carrier for GBS (group B strep). not harmful to me but could be to the baby unless i get antibiotics during labor...so i'll be getting more antibiotics as well as we'll have to stay in the hospital a little longer than usual.
anyway, send some prayers our way. we're rushing around getting things ready just in case. i should have results by friday, monday at the latest :)
it is exciting knowing that we're getting closer to meeting our little man. i have also made progress....2 cm!!! only 8 more to go!!
have a great day,
tara

wow!!! Sounds like Jordan is causing all kinds of ruckus getting ready to arrive. We will be praying for you guys and I'll get the final touches on the announcements so they'll be ready when you are! Glad they found out about the GBS now- better to have the antibiotics in delivery than for baby J to go through that later. WE LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU!!!!
Wow!! Can't believe our little nephew could be here as early as next week!! That is so exciting!! Hope he will be okay with the GBS stuff!! We will keep all of ya'll in mind during the next few weeks!! Let us know as soon as you find out what is gonna happen. Love you guys, Jaci and Trent
yeah!!! I'll be praying for you. The same thing happened with Kimberly and her protein-urine test for pre-eclampsia. You've got my prayers.
