One "Freak Out Day" Out of the Way

Yeah.  After receiving the report results from last week's check up, I was certain yesterday I had preeclampsia, and it was imperative to have the baby NOW before I had today's check up.  I was certain that at the check up the doctor would look at my terrible symptoms, cackle evilly, and say "Go to the hospital!  Lay in a bed hooked up to obscene amounts of Pitocin!  We are going to get this baby out in the most horrible way imaginable!  It will hurt a lot!"  

• My "+1" protein result didn't even make her blink.  Probably just an anomaly, and she really doesn't care until it hits +2 or +3.
• My "elevated" blood pressure of 120/60?  Oh please.
• My horrible swelling?  OK, so I can't wear my "size tiny" wedding ring right now.  

The good news is all the contractions I gave myself yesterday worrying actually DID do something, so Mom was right!  Braxton Hicks can be terribly annoying and pretty useful.  

I've used up another "Pregnant Female Freak Out Day," so let's hope this baby comes before I start going over my limit!
