So our 24hr observation became a 48 hr as one of the test they were running got compromised at the last minute and we had to start over.
Bailey was a champ for the most part and put up with being on the monitor often even though she hates it. At one point her heart beat was going crazy from 119 to 180 and back rapidly. Bobby and I were worried at first, but my room was right across from the nurses station, and we could hear the charge nurse calling other nurses over saying, "look at baby Stelzer dance, she is such a happy baby." Made us feel much better without even talking to them.
We got to come home last night, my blood pressure is still high and fluctuating a lot but it's not pre-eclampsia, so we get to wait until the first to deliver. I can't wait to meet her, but the the extra two weeks can make a big difference in how well she will handle surgery and in her skin thickness for shunt placement.
Sleeping in my own bed was awesome and she seemed to be happier and calmer as well.
12 days to go...
