You should put the date filmed at the bottom like you use to. I look forward to yalls video everyday!!!

[@ypmama4747]

Brad's driving comment reminded me of when we had our 4th...when we notified family I was in labor, my father-in-law responded with "so exciting." My husband's cousin, on the other hand, responded with "Exciting!? Once you get to 4, it's just like making a trip to the mailbox." Still makes me laugh lol :)

Lol I'm 28wks with number 5🤣🤣 so true

Thus the reason babies after number 2 have no baby books and very few baby pictures.

[@cooperfreckles]

I had 8 none fast. None! I had one c-section for my 3rd he passed away due to an undiagnosed heart defect. Then my last 5 we needed help getting pregnant. I have PCOS. I had vbac for all my other 5. Even the one I had to be induced. My last stubborn little boy on his due date.

This month is preeclampsia awareness. My youngest daughter had her daughter at 26 weeks due to preeclampsia. My granddaughter weighed 1lb 6oz and was 12 inches long. She spent 118 days in the NICU and is 5 now and is thriving. She weighs 30 lbs now I believe. She’s amazing. My daughter was told that she would be a high risk to have other children and they wouldn’t recommend it.

OH GEESH! I had just taken a big sip of Soda when Rach said "you should be rolling a bugger". I almost lost it. That high number was definitely high, plus more importantly like you said "high for you". You are right the cure for Preeclampsia is delivering the babies, not bed rest. So glad you went and got it checked out, better safe than sorry. I had to lay down while the hospital was trying to get my blood pressure under control (not pregnancy related) with meds. My numbers were through the roof, and I had fluid build up around my heart. It took the hospital a couple of days to get my blood pressure under control.

Rachel I sure as heck hope you weren’t taking your blood pressures racing around your house like it appeared! My goodness mine was elevated just watching you. This is probably too late to post, from one medication taking anxiety person to the other, try and just sit back and take care. Your poor ankles do look like a disaster but the urine protein findings were perfect. If these babies aren’t here yet I hope you find a way to get some adult company and try and talk thru these horrible anxiety filled days while getting the rest you need. I know I know for a anxious person not a easy task!

While getting the 4th transfusion my baby had enough so 3 days later at 32 weeks pregnant I delivered via c-section my beautiful son. He weighed 4 lbs 8 oz and came home 11 days later. He is now 35 years old. Hang tough Doll. God and your doctors have you.

I was a nursery nurse. Labor and delivery etc for 17 yrs. Many but not all babies were able to go to be monitored in the normal nursery at delivery. Like I said not all but most of the 35 weepers that went to the nicu spent a few days there. But steroids wouldn’t be a bad idea. Bed rest can help if your labs and urine are normal. Bed rest never hurts.

[@luda1952]

Oh Rach you are so precious! Those feet/legs look incredibly uncomfortable. I was hoping the hospital would put TED stockings on you & give you some sequentials for a few hours with a catheter to get rid of the swelling & literally make you rest for 4-6 hours. The sequentials would negate blood clot concerns because they are literally moving the pressure in your legs for you. I think if it’s your taped leg that’s more swollen since the tape was applied, I would take that off too. When you’re taking your own blood pressure, try to sit down quietly for 5 mins first, with your arms both equal in position in comparison to your heart (ie don’t have the BP arm up higher). Take slow deep breaths in your nose & out of your mouth. Any rest you do have, try to elevate your feet right up from under your knees first to your feet & another pillow cushion under the natural curve of your back but your head elevated the most. I know it’s extremely difficult to lay on your back but with knees & feet right up, back support & elevated head you should be OK. Incontinence pads to wee in & change regularly as the fluid leaves via your bladder would also be extremely useful. If you get a headache & swelling ANYWHERE else please go back to the hospital immediately. Pre-eclampsia that turns into eclampsia is life threatening. Take very good care of yourself 💞

[@mojavewolf1]

You two are a beautiful couple ✌🏻

[@kimj.becker5527]

Yes bed rest is for preeclampsia. My daughter’s blood pressure was kind of high, they told her to be a couch potato. But she didn’t have any kids yet. Just relax as much as you can. And don’t cross your ankles. Cuts off circulation. Best wishes for you and the babies. When will you tell us the names?

[@joytoyouandme4593]

They usually don’t announce until after babies have arrived.

[@louannekeast8575]

Things have changed so much. I had pre eclampsia with my 1st nearly 40years ago. I was on bedrest in the hospital for 4 weeks. They tried inducing 4 times, the 4th time they got fetal distress with my 1st contraction. Emergency c-section full term on her due date. I had a tiny 5lb 4oz little girl. Fine with my 2nd daughter she was 2 weeks early by c-section 6lbs 8oz. My 3rd i started to develope pre eclampsia again at 36 weeks so they delivered him 7lbs 7 oz. They thought he may even have been eager than 36 weeks as he had no suck reflex and no eye lashes or eyebrows. After a couple of hours he was fine, no nice in our tiny community hospital. We went home in 5 days. So many changes now.

[@elaynekuenstler9860]

Wow! Keeping me on my toes waiting.

[@juliechilton59]

i had preeclampsia with my last baby glad you went in ...im surprised they just havent taken girls out especally at 34 weeks safer out if mom BP up what my dr said ....

[@MissouriCrookedBarnHomestead]

Preeclampsia both pregnancies and I was put on bed rest both times. For me, it did not work, the protein in my urine went higher and they admitted for continued stay on bed rest in the hospital with 4 different blood pressure medications that all did not work and the final medication they put me on was Macrobid. When it got to that point and 2 weeks in the hospital, they decided Caesarean was the only option. The swelling in my ankles never really went away after that. Now I'm 45 and still deal with swelling in my ankles all the time.

[@sandiemom8888]

I was going to ask you about pre eclampsia. As I looked like you. I had pre eclampsia. BP 200/100 spilling protein. Only cure for pre eclampsia is delivery. My son was born at 31 weeks. Hopefully all is well and if you have 2 news princesses all will be well. Prayers and hugs ❤

[@lisaharley1725]

I had pre eclampsia with my first he was delivered at 33wks totally healthy and about to turn 17 , I still remember the swelling,the extra fluids was crazy, I was sent 2 hrs away I was admitted to hospital at 32 wks I had the worst headache due to blood pressure (cried the 2 hr roadtrip it was that bad)protein in my urine and severe swelling

My bp has always been a little on the higher side, but I've always been over weight. But when I was pregnant with my son at 18 (now 31 and on bp meds) my bp was pretty decent for the most part. Around my 8th month I started swelling, it was pretty bad. I told my doctors I was swelling and they like naw, you're find. I went to my first one week appointment and got sent to the hospital. One of the doctors at the practice was like you will have a baby tonight. I was like what do you mean I still have over 3 weeks left. And he was like I'll put it to you this way, you won't leave the hospital til you have him. The highest I know my bp got was 188/122. I was in the hospital all together 5 days. I got put in June 5th. The doctor that delivered me 18 years before actually delivered my son. The day he induced me he asked me if he sent me home on bed rest would I stay on it. I looked at him with a straight face and asked him did he want the truth or a lie, this was June 7th. I was already going crazy cause I wasn't suppose to get out of bed unless I was going to the bathroom cause every time I did my bp sky rocketed. So when I asked him that he said I was getting induced. He broke my water about 3:30 pm on June 7th and I had him at 6:11 am June 8th. But I did have to start pushing before I was at a 10 cause my bp was going up again and he didn't want to have to do a c-section on me. Later that day I was put in ICU and put on magnesium to keep me from having g seizures. I left June 10th and my son left NICU June 17th. So I know how you feel Rach. It's soooo uncomfortable and scary. My lips was even purple at one point.

[@rhondagreen135]

The swelling is unbelievable! I had swelling with my son who has a July bday. That has got to be so uncomfortable.
