The countdown is ticking.

Around week 34 it became official the doctors were less tentative to say the words preeclampsia around me. Shortly after my last post I found myself in and out of maternity like a hot potato. Blood and protein still in pee. Weeks long headaches that started to become migraines. Some right sided pain. Puffy feet. You get the picture. At this point I officially considered myself to be over being pregnant.

We sorted out the birth plan, not that life often intends to go to plan but we will see. There’s not long to go either way.

By week 35 I officially felt ready to start the count down. Just a couple more weeks to hit the target and we can stay on island if all goes well. Fingers crossed.

36 week midwife appointment fun, the bingo card for things found in my pee was once again complete. Higher readings of protein and blood. So that’s being sent away. Fun times.
