They finally got my pressures down to a reasonable though still higher than normal level. The goal is to use the meds for the first week paired with rest. Then we'll start to reduce meds as my pressures will allow. Our prayer at this point is that I will be able to reduce the meds and return to normal. There is a slight chance that high blood pressure will not only be pregnancy related for me since it has not yet returned to normal on it's own. So we are praying against that and hopeful that it will still go away.
Chris has taken the rest of the week off and we're going to do what is totally Un-Crack Team like and actually rest and accept help from our awesome community of friends. It's counter-intuative to our can-do natures but we really do want what's best for our cupcake, Chloe, and for my body to heal. We'll do our best to get some more pictures posted but rest is our number one priority at this point.
Thanks again for your prayers! Here's a Chloe picture with a bear made by our friend Stephanie who is also doing the bedding stuff for her room. Sad to think Chloe will one day be bigger than the bear! I love this precious bundle stage...
