Go slow and easy...

Went for my blood tests ytd. Earlier than scheduled since my bp kinda raised to >140/90mmHg on Thu.

WEnt through 3 rounds of blood withdrawal from 0830-1030, once every hourly. Guess the glucose drink (for the Diabetes Test) wasn't as bad as mentioned & I kinda enjoyed the drink which is super sweet! Guess the fasting from 10pm the night before causes the drink to be more tolerant in me as I was hungry and thirsty by the time I reach the hospital. BB was even kicking and kinda dancing not long after I gulped down the drink so guess he is enjoying the sudden glucose rush too?

Anyway, gotta the results in the afternoon and while a sigh of relief that I cleared the glucose test with no signs of diabetes, the risk for PreEclampsia is there. Which means if my bp continues to be high, I will risk going into fits/convulsions/stroke and also lose my baby if the placenta stopped sending nutrients/oxygen to bb. Guess this came as a big shock and can't help it, I finally broke down. Kinda freaked Dearie out with my sobbing and he needs to keep assuring me that with ample rest at home, my bp will be under control.

For now, I have to learn to stop my super-fast paced walking. Got reprimanded by Mummy too last night as she said I am not walking like a pregnant woman, instead at a too fast pace which she can't even catch up at times. Think alot of colleagues at work has been "reprimanding" me for the pace I used in school too? Didnt really occur to me that this will raise my bp... :( And of cos my twice daily bp monitoring at home and the weekly gynae checkup from nw on. Juz praying hard that my rest at home will be fine as I do not want to be hospitalised early for monitoring or even worse still, to deliver BB prematurely.

Go slow.... Go easy... Keep my spirits high... Even decided that I will cut down on the com/PSP games which I planning to play when I am bored and they should be of less intense nature. If possible, think I will like juz sleep and go on a hibernation mode. Somehow, I juz can't stay still if I m awake?

3 more weeks to go... Baby Javier, Hang in there k? Everything will be fine soon. Juz keep growing and be strong my dear little precious one...
