    We are very worried about Heather and baby Eli.She has been in the hospital since before I got here.Heather's blood pressure has been yoyoing up and down.She has been given blood pressure Meds and her head hurt her so bad last night.They think its the new pressure meds they have helped her B.P.but was taken off it this morning.We went to bed last night with the clothes laid out ready to get into them and go to the hospital.If they decided to the c-section this morning.We were told to get to the hospital fast as possible.We have deep snow here.
    Please remember her in your prayers today and each day forward.
    I wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving.

    Sending all my best wished to Heather and child.
    I hope that they get a handle on that BP elevation. She may need some IV meds to regulate that. Actually the hosp. is probably the best place for her and especially if the snow gets dumped down on you guys. Did she also have some bleeding during her days of pregnancy?
    I suppose that by now she has had her C-Section, right? Did that go well?
    I would expect the the BP elevation might drop after the the delivery.

    I'm wondering if her doc mentioned that her hypertension was the type induced by pregnancy or if another term was used.

    I imagine that they may want to keep an eye on them for a few days after the delivery, don't you?
    Please keep us posted on Heather's and the child's condition.

    Stay strong, yourself...I shall be sending good thoughts for YOU as well, Glenda.

    Glenda, you know I will add my prayers and good thoughts to those from the rest of your Stew friends. I pray that they'll get things under control quickly so baby Eli and Heather will both be OK. And prayers for you and her husband too. I was just thinking, Glenda, I am so glad you are there in Montana. It is where you need to be.

    Thank all of my great friends here on the Stew for all your prayers good thoughts and hugs.I really needed them all.The Dr.gave Heather meds to get her B.P down .It brought the B.P. down but gave her a Terrible headache.
    He gave her something to ease her head and put her to sleep as she was in such pain she didn't sleep at all.She slept all day and woke with know headache.They didn't do the C-Section as they really are trying for her to go until at least Sunday as she will be considered 8 months .We took her Thanksgiving Dinner after she woke up.Joe is staying at the hospital with her tonight.
    Sjoerd she had no bleeding problems She had very little morning sickness .She went to the Dr.and her B.P.Was high he put her in the hospital for a couple of days.He let her out as her B.P.went down.Then Bam
    she went to the Dr he put her in the hospital.He turned her over to a Neo Natal Dr.and has been there ever since.She will not come home until they do the C-Section. The baby may be in the care at hospital for 8 weeks we have to wait and see.I will do my best to keep you all informed of how things are going.
