Miserable, miserable, miserable.
If I stand up my blood pressure is stupid high. Doctors only care what it is after I've been resting for 10 minutes. It feels pretty miserable to have your blood pressure go from 120/80 to 150/95 in a few seconds. And then back down. And then back up. And spending the last few weeks of pregnancy on bedrest wouldn't be that bad if I hadn't spent 11 laying down already. And looking around at a filthy house, and not being able to do anything because it makes me feel like CRAP to even walk to the kitchen and get a glass of water, is making me even more miserable than those 11 weeks of bedrest did.
My face is swollen and I look ridiculous, and my fingers are swollen and they hurt and look ridiculous. I've now fully graduated to having my bp be high all the time, and YESTERDAY I wasn't sure I would opt for the induction next thursday, now I know I will because I feel physically sick and concerned about having high blood pressures with the little girl still in there. And frankly, losing your vision because of high blood pressure is something you only want to go through a few times in your life (or NEVER I guess)... I'd like to avoid it all together this pregnancy, if possible.
I'm sure everyone's read all they want about this, but I'm frustrated and annoyed, and there's nowhere else to go...
