The end is near... I hope.
The Dr is monitoring for preclampsia/toxemia which means I have the following symptoms:
Headaches
Blurred Vision
High Blood Pressure
Piercing pain under my ribs
and the best feature... SWELLING!
I am officially the size of an elephant due to swelling. I took off my shoes tonight and my ankles and legs are the official definition of kankles (A disease in which the calf and the foot merge together, effectively cutting out the middle man - aka the ankle).
Oh yeah, I've never been sexier!
The not so funny part of it all is when the Dr's nurse asked if I had been feeling ok, I explained that I had a really bad pain in my ribs and my swelling was getting worse. She took my blood pressure and asked if I had any blurred or spotted vision and headaches that wouldn't go away with Tylenol. I confirmed and told her I thought it was from the pressure that pregnancy was causing. She looked at me like I was an idiot! I guess with all the symptoms combined, it means bad things. Oops!
