37 Weeks: So it begins! Mabye not!

Ok this has been a very interesting week for us. Last Wednesday at Kates Prenatal appointment she was told to our surprise that her blood pressure was high and that she has to stop work immediatly and go on bed rest. No meetings, no work, no nothing. Ok... We were also told to moniter Kates Blood pressure at home and if it goes over a certain number take her into the IWK ASAP. So by Sunday her numbers go above that number and down to the IWK we go. Four hours later she is sent home... not yet! Then I get a call from work on Tuesday at noon. Kates numbers are quite high. We call Kates Doctor at the IWK... She says to come in right away. We get there and her numbers shoot way up for a few hours so they decide not to mess around as Kate is almost at 37 weeks. We are told she will definitly be induced and she is rushed to the Birthing room. After being there for about an hour and after calling everyone and telling them this is it, her bp numbers go back down at the last minute so they decide they will now not induce. They decide to instead to send her to the 7th floor for monitoring over the next 24-36 hours. They are sure she will not be sent back home though. Well here we are on Wednesday night and Kates numbers are up but not as bad so it looks like they will be sending her home tommorow morning. This has been quite the crazy week. But also very educational. We went to all the prenatal classes etc but until this happened we didnt realize that it is common to be rushed into the delivery room only to have them change their mind if they can keep the baby in a bit longer. So now we are better prepared mentally for what could be several more weeks of this! :) we shall see. Sorry for the long post I try not to do that but its been nuts!
