Bed Rest Agrees With Me

(24w3d)
Well pin a rose on my nose.

First BP at Dr. Peri’s today was a little higher, but after laying down in one of the monitoring recliners for a few minutes, my systolic dropped by 25 mmHg.

Wow!
Beautiful.

The front office staff jokingly said I cheated when the nurse took it lying down.
But as it best represents the position I am in 90% of the day, I’d say it is the most accurate picture of what my blood pressure is on a daily basis.

Judging from that blood pressure, I should have weeks of bed rest ahead of me :-).

For now I will continue on the current schedule…
Tuesday BP and urine,
Friday BP, urine and doctor visit

I was so pleased with myself that I picked up some lunch and ran (ummmm, slowly waddled) into a bakery on the way home.

As for the most recent belly shot….
