Pregnancy Info HOME

Samantha- Well, I sure hope the high bp doesn't mean anything serious. A lot of times your blood pressure may increase and be nothing, and I sure hope thats exactly what that is. It could be a sign of preeclampsia, but they would check your urine for protein if they thought that. At this stage though, you are far enough that they shouldnt worry about that unless your baby starts going into distress. Yea, I totally know what you mean about been ready. I can only imagine about where you are right now. Every waking day you wondering, "is today it". I have had signs of preterm labor since week 32. Now I am week 35 and I now wonder if I am going to go past my due date. Its so hard just not knowing. Anyhow, I really hope the membrane stripping works for you and you start dilating more here soon. The good news is that you are effacing very well, so you wont have to worry about that. :) Good luck!
