Well yesterday we got a new addition to our family. Last week I was diagnosed with mild preclampsia. So this week I was suppose to take it easy as much as possible and drink lots of water. The past couple of days my blood pressure was starting to go higher. Yesterday when I went in and they took my blood pressure and it was 160/107, and after that reading they had my lay on my left side for 4 minutes and than they took another reading which I can't remember what the reading was but it was lower. Than the doctor came in and did the ultrasound and saw the the fluid level was low. Basically the placenta had stopped working. So that's when he decided to do the c-section. I ended up calling the middle school and I told them it's an emergency, and they let Cory go, he only missed one class, and took today and yesterday off.  So glad the people he works with are really nice.
