Looks like my blood pressure is down some, no pre-eclampsia shown in any lab or urine tests. So doc says it looks like pregnancy induced hypertension for now. My thyroid, gallbladder, and liver function tests came back looking great as well. The babies look great on the NST as well.
When I discussed the IUGR (intrauterine grown restriction) with my doc I got the percentiles on the babies. As of growth scan last Monday. Baby A was in the 36th percentile for growth and baby B was only 15th percent with a measurement of her tummy at only the 5th percent.
In other words...there is a 21% difference between the two. The docs like to see below 20%.
April 1st we will have another growth scan to see is Elsie increases her percentile. If so GREAT and doctor is planning on inducing me around 36 weeks and is on call April 12th. If she decreases percentile there is a very real possibility that I will be induced the week of April 1st.
That is all if I don't go into labor before then of course. My doctor is thrilled that I have made it to 32 weeks and her next goal is 34. After that there is a huge decrease in complications.
