Is it wrong?

Ok so my doctor told me that I am on bed rest from here on out due to rising blood pressure charted over the past few weeks. I have done a 24 hour urine collection over the 4th of July and then another one is scheduled for tomorrow. The fist time they found nothing to indicate pre-e in both blood work and urine collection.

a pool is better than bed rest because baby floats in the pool, getting away from your cervix and relieving all pressure. tell people to eff off if they have a problem

It seems the pool would be really relaxing and just as good as bed rest. Actually maybe better because you have less stress on your body. It's not like you were doing laps! Some people are just crazy. I say relax in the pool.

The emphasis is on the REST part. It has nothing to do with your bed.

You're not suppose to literally lay on bed all day that can cause blood clots, people are idiots unless they are a doctor I would tell them to shut their mouth and swimming sounds pretty relaxing to me

Bed rest does not mean DO NOT MOVE FROM YOUR BED.

Point taken about the Facebook update. I usually update for my family who do not live in the same state as I do.

I realize she may just be looking out for me but if she isn't in the situation or haven't been, maybe she should have stated her reply a little differently. I am not mad, just irritated that I am being told I must absolutely never leave my bed for any reason. I mean I am only human and need to move to avoid hurting. I am not doing work outs or strenuous activities sitting in the pool is not strenuous it actually felt really good and relaxing.

It's not wrong to try and move around at all! :) I also don't think it's wrong for someone looking out for you. Maybe this person was just worried about you, maybe next time don't update on Facebook. I hope your bp goes down and remember getting mad makes it go up higher

No you weren't wrong at all. Nobody wants to be confined to the bed all day, everyday. It's good to get out just for awhile, long as you're not doing anything strenuous.

Is it just my docs?

Idk why, but every time I go to the doctor they just check my blood pressure, weight, urine, baby's heartbeat, and send me on my way!

My doctors don't do anything else either... However I saw someone different last week and she checked
That's all my dr does. I just figured it's because all is going well. I know she
Same here too! Except she also measures my belly. It's such a waste of time to go

protein in urine ???

So I just got back from my 32wk check up and doctor said I had alot of protein in my urine which could mean preeclampsia however my blood sugar is not high and you have to have both high BS and protein in urine.. Still I'm pretty nervous. She gave me this huge jug and I have to do a 24hr urine test and blood work.. Anyone else experience this ? I heard it can be pretty dangerous ! :(

Still at the hospital right now! Getting very bored now - can't imagine staying another 2 months!!
I know this is kinda off topic and you may not remember giving me advice on the
