So tomorrow my baby will be 1 week old. I had an exciting but challenging labor due to high blood pressure. I had no other symptoms of preeclampsia (no protien in my urine, my blood work was perfect, no other signs) just the super high bp. They had me on Magnesium Sulfate to keep it down along with some shots and here I am 6 days later and it's ( Read more... )
