Guest guest Posted May 7, 2003 Report Share Posted May 7, 2003 Hi, Sara's DH Matt here. Ok, it's 6AM, and here's what we know and here's where we're at. The doctors wouldn't or couldn't come out and say that Sara has pre-eclampsia for sure. However, her BP is high - it topped out at 168/96 at about 11:30 last night, but then went down, and her swelling is bad enough that they admitted her. At around 1AM, they gave her some intravaginal medicine to ripen/dialate the cervix. It's not prostoglandin, it's something else I've never heard of. At 8:00AM or so they are planning on starting the pitocin drip. @whee! For those of you who know the story of Mikey's birth, rest assured that Sara has admitted that she will need pain management for this birth and will ask for what she needs. We will probably be in the hospital through Friday evening or Saturday if all goes well. We are in Room 292 at Doctor's Hospital West in Columbus, OH, in case you wanted to send a card or flowers. We ask that phone calls, for now, be kept to a minimum so Sara can get all the rest she needs. BTW, during an ultrasound, we found out the baby's sex. If you want to know, scroll way down at the end of the message. If not, DELETE NOW!!! Thanks for all your prayers and thoughts. I'll update you as soon as I can. -Matt Byklet v 3.0 is Boy #3!

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2003 Report Share Posted May 7, 2003 You and your family will be in my thoughts. I hope all goes quickly and safely with the least amount of pain. BTW I am only a few miles from you guys here in Columbus. Can't wait to read the birth announcement.
