So,anyway,I just got back from my 12 weeks scan a minute ago and this is the deal:
The baby has grown so much from 8 weeks!It looks like a real baby now!I was just completly amazed.It was very active and practically dancing around in there!My gyn said that she wouldn't be surprised if I felt it kick soon.She tried to find the gender but the baby was moving way too much.
But,I also asked her about my constant sickness and how i'm losing weight so she ran a few more tests and she found the result worrying(not the words you want to hear).
She discovered that my blood ressure is dangerously low(her words not mine).
Now,I've always had low blood pressure and it never caused me much trouble except not being able to go anywhere by elevator.
But now I'm literally falling down the stairs in my house going downstairs to the living room in the morning.
So I freaked out when she told me that it could cause the baby to stop developing!
She proscribed some pills for me and said that if it doesn't rise up,I'll have to spend the rest of my pregnancy in the hospital!
This is terrible!
Oh and yeah I'm gonna have to get an injection of some kind beacuse I'm rhesus negative...
I'm sorry! I haven't had a scan yet but I'm sure I would be terrified if I heard that. I wish you the best of luck and hope for your sake and the baby's that you feel better soon!!!!!!
