Oh! of course except for the fact that I learned a few things today. Like the reason why my blood pressure has been acting up yesterday is because they screwed up my blood pressure medication dosage - instead of giving me 60 mg, i am only being given 30 mg of the blood pressure medicine. There has been improvement today since they changed the dosage and I have been hovering around 130s/90s once again. Not too low but not too high as well..
No more shortness of breath thank God! :) I think being off the IV bag helped alot just because there is so much liquid in my body that it's squishing all my organs together. I saw Dr. H again today and even he said I look so much better today. Maybe I do not look too purple coz I can breathe easily.
Unfortunately the swelling on my legs and things and feet has not improved any. But I did feel lesser pressure on my back (which I noticed the other day is starting to swell too) so it's actually easier to move around.
Ryan went to work today and went home for about 4-5 hours to get some sleep. My poor baby has had much sleep over the last few days that he said that 4 hours of nap helped alot! He came back to the hospital at around 5 in the afternoon with some homecooked food (rice, eggs, meat, grilled cheese sandwhich) and it was yummy! We both missed home cooked meals coz it's been 4 days that we are eating hospital cafeteria and restaurant food. He is so sweet to cook for us and his rice is perfect :)
Today I got a chance to see little Apollo on ultrasound to just check how he is doing and as usual he is doing great! His heartbeat rate is stable at 135-145 per minute and fetal movement is consistent. My little Polo is growing big too :)
I took advantage of my wheelchair rights again with my Ryan and we went down to get some Starbucks coffee. :) It's just a few minutes but the fact that we get to spend time together means alot to us. :)
Be safe you guys - I am thinking about you today!!! -Lin
