Not long to go now!
Sending positive thoughts your way!

Sending positive thoughts, Ledonna. Take care of yourself and little Nugget.

Please let us know how your appointments went.

Praying , had this in my first pregnancy....

Hey family just finished another drs appointment. She does not think I'll make it past 37 weeks. Thank you for the positive vibes and prayers. Otherwise baby is doing good but my bp is high still.

Rachylou you keep me laughing. Lol

It's kinda good to know that others have had this and come through alright.

Thanks for keeping us in the loop. Looking forward to seeing Nugget.

So glad you are being properly monitored! Thanks for taking the time to give us an update.
Good news she is comfortable to let you wait for 37 weeks!
Rest up, sweetie! Sending more prayer and good vibes!

Sending positive vibes! Take care of yourself and keep us posted!

It sounds like they are taking good care of you. Truly though, the difference between your baby being born at 35 or 36 or 37 weeks is not so big. You've sailed though all the points where it would have been touch and go because of the baby's "age".

That baby might be born ANY DAY NOW!!

I have my 3 day appointment on Monday. So we will see.if Monday is the day

I just saw this ! Sending prayers too

Thanks for letting us know. Waiting to hear from you Monday after your appointment. Sending you and Nugget hopes and prayers.

I don't pray, but I am thinking positive thoughts for you and your little one! Even if the baby comes tomorrow, by this far along everything will be just fine. In the third trimester, everything's developed -- the fetus is mostly just packing on body fat. A friend of mine delivered her twins at 30 weeks and I couldn't believe how fully formed they were -- every little finger and toe perfect. They didn't even need a ventilator; they just had to be monitored for a week in the hospital and kept warm, because they weren't chubby like full-term babies.

Best of luck! I am so excited for you.

Sending prayers. Sounds like the docs are taking good care of you. Very excited for you!

Just back from holiday! Thinking of you and the baby. xoxo

Ledonna, I just saw this and I am adding my warmest wishes and hopes for you and your little one!!

Monday during my regular Dr's appointment my bp shot up to 176/78 it stayed up during the entire dr visit when checked again Dr sent me to labor and delivery.

Babby Nugget decided she wanted to wait a bit longer to make her grand entrance. After hrs and multiple test. She was like nope I'm just gonna stay home a bit longer.
I've got multiple appointments for the rest of the week.

All I could do while leaving the hospital was sing.

I thank you Jesus. I thank you Jesus. I thank you Jesus. I thank you Lord. Oh you brought me, yes you brought me a mighty long way...

Thank you for your good vibes and prayers.

Lots of excitement!

Happy you are both hanging in there.

Glad you are being watched so closely. And thanks for the updates.

I think Nugget knows it's nice and warm in there.

Keeping both of you in my thoughts and prayers.

You are still smiling and rocking it! I am watching with bated breath... my friend is going through exactly the same symptoms and they are delivering her twins tomorrow! So glad you are both getting great care.

It's exciting to go through this with you! Holding you and nugget close in my thoughts. xxx

Love your positive attitude, Ledonna. And wonderful that you and precious nugget are being monitored closely.

Praising the Lord with you! Thank you, Jesus, for keeping Ledonna and baby safe. Praying!

So, they tried to induce but didn't work? So sorry, hun, that is very stressful. You'll get through it, though! Hang in there; eyes on the prize...almost through now.

Again Thanks everyone for prayers and goid thoughts. It truly is uplifting to read especially if I'm having a hard day. Some days are more difficult than others but you all my virtual and real family keepv a smile on my face. I have another Dr's appointment on Wednesday. Hopefully all will be well if not back to labor and delivery. Lol.

Jenava. They did not try to induce me. If my blood pressure had not gone back down and the babies heart beat did not stabilize. They would have. I was monitered for about 5 hrs along with in-depth testing. Thankning God everthing normalized. They did not want the baby or I to be in distress. They connected me to my bp every 10 minutes and kept me connected to the fetal heart monitor.

Glad you & Nugget are being so closely monitored.

Here's to hoping all goes well at your appointment on Wednesday, and you have a smooth, easy delivery with a healthy Nugget

Love, Love, Love to Ledonna and Nugget! Wrapping you in the comfort and warmth of endless love---we support you in your journey, and are holding a soft, STRONG net to welcome Nugget into the fabric of this glorious, beautiful world.

Oh, Ledonna, I am sending positive thoughts for you and your baby. At this point, I am sure that when the baby arrives, she will no doubt be healthy. However, the problem is instead of being well-rested and mentally prepared, you will be have been stressed and exhausted. Having spent the 4 nights out of 10 before my son arrived in the hospital emergency, I speak from experience. So my suggestion to you is, whenever you are not in the hospital/being tested/monitored, try to get some sleep or just put your feet up and rest, eat, watch TV shows, whatever it is that you do to take care of yourself. Have your family/SO take care of you, pamper you. Because soon you will not have any time for it, and you will need it more than ever.

God is good!
Bella is so on point - resting and keeping your feet up with keep the blood pressure lower and allow you to save up some energy.
Sending prayers, good vibes and love!

I'm so torn between wanting to say "go to bed!" and wanting to say "tell us more! Exactly how are you feeling right now???" hahahaha. Clearly, we cannot get enough of you and your story. Hang in there, lady. And you, too, baby! <3

Hey everyone I've a Dr's appointment in a few hours. Going shopping for a few snacks just in case They decide to keep me.

Viva I'm surprisingly calm or not nervous. We have made it this far I've had so many ups and downs. I feel as if I am on a rollercoaster ride but im looking forward to the next loop.

Thank you all for the great advice.

Bella it is much appreciated.

For the record this is week 36 & 5 days.
