Well we hope everyone had a great Easter. I know it has been a while since we last posted and we don't have any new picture but wanted to update everyone on the pregnancy. Today marks the 24 week mark for us which is an important milestone in the fetal development. About 5 weeks ago when we went to the doctor for our big ultrasound to find out It's a boy we also found out that I had high blood pressure that was at dangerous levels. We went to Colorado for the weekend and saw a cardiologist on our return. He placed me on medication that worked for a while but my blood pressure was till rising at times. Last Monday while at work my OB called to check my BP readings and directed me to go immediately home and start modified bed rest. So I have been on modified bed rest for a whole week now. At first the rest was helping but over the weekend they rose again. Yesterday they changed my medication and it seems to of helped. They will continue to monitor and have refered us to a perinatologist for further evalutaion. The good news is even with the high blood pressure Trey is still growing on schedule. He measured 1 pound 2 ounces at our last appt last week, and is in the 37% percentile. We will keep all of y'all posted as much as we can. Please keep us and baby Trey in your prayers.
On a happy note we did get to make our annual trip this weekend for one my favorite traditions to take pictures in the Texas bluebonnets and I will post pics soon.
