Then my phone rang and it was my doctor asking me to meet her at triage at the hospital as soon as I could get there. She explained that my blood results came back with an abnormality and they wanted to check me, check Bubba and re-do the blood tests. All as a precautionary of course, but then she said "if we find something then we'll have to do something". I must of gone from cheery to stone cold silent cause she quickly asked if I was ok. I said I was, told her I'd be there in a hour and hung up. But I was honestly in a moment of complete freak out!!
For a second there I thought the worse, but then I pulled myself together and immediately prayed a prayer for calm and handed myself and my baby over to God. I was at peace right in that moment with whatever was to be. I thought to myself, "this could be it! I could be meeting Bubba today! I didn't want it to go this way but as long as we're both safe & healthy, that's all I care about."
I got to the hospital and after a little while I was in a gown and attached to a fetal monitor. I had to pee in a cup, had my blood taken, blood pressure checked, pulse was checked, temperature checked. Everything was done! The nurses there were AMAZING!
I'm SO grateful for my mom, she was with me the whole four hours I was there. Keeping me calm, keeping Cam updated (he was at work), drove me and took care of the parking. THANK-YOU MOM!!!
The tests came back with two higher than normal liver readings but everything else is good. So I was free to go with instructions to go for more blood work on Friday and another blood pressure test on Saturday.
Now... I'm going to concentrate on keeping healthy but I'm also going to walk like crazy, and try to encourage Bubba to come out soon!!!
Thanks for all the love & prayers friends. I appreciate all the support I got today, it meant SO much!

Funny side note: when the nurse measured me she said "whoa, long baby! Having trouble breathing?!" Hahaha! That really put a smile on my face! :)
