ITS VANNY

Acc I go by my real name now, Savannah, or Sav bahahahahha

<3 my husband Nathan See More
Been admitted to the hospital twice in the last week 🥲 first time was over my blood pressure being 159/125 and the second time was because Meadow failed her stress test (not by a lot but still failed) and we needed to make sure she wasn’t physically in distress *cri*

On top of stress tests, I now have to get ultrasounds twice a week too.

Meadow is okay but mama Sav, not as much. Very on edge. Very worried.

Welp. Who’s ready for a Qfeast baby in ≈2 weeks or less… 😬

I have developing preeclampsia so now I am on bed rest and being constantly monitored. I have to go to the hospital once a week for stress testing and the baby doctor twice a week for other testing (weight, blood pressure checks, etc). If anything changes with my health, I have to have her. I am extremely high risk. Meadow is FINE and HAPPY but her mama is borderline being tortured. Just pray for the next couple of weeks, See More

I’m also starting to show signs of having labor soon. My braxton hicks (false labor contractions) have turned into uterine contractions, but they aren’t consistent enough to be active labor. My body is also showing other signs but they are tmi to share online. Just know, we will have a baby soon. ♥️

In two weeks from today, Meadow will be the earliest a full term baby can be. ♥️ I am 35 weeks.

Even though she’s already measuring that term because of how big she is, it’s only an approximate. But, she has free rein to come whenever she wants because she will be 97% ready either way. She just needs to get a little fatter, just a little bit. 97% survival rate at this gestational age. I’m so proud of her.

Last ultrasound is on Tuesday, exactly one month from induction date. Nate also got paternity leave approved so he’ll be able to spend six weeks off with Meadow. ♥️ my heart is so full.

I also met the doctor delivering the c-section, I was initially concerned because my friend wasn’t a fan of hers but she was actually really nice and cool. I like her a lot and I’m very comfortable with her doing my surgery. She also loves Meadow’s name and said she doesn’t say that often about baby names. 😂

Couple of updates…

-I do have gestational diabetes.

-Now I may have consistent hypertension, which can lead to preeclampsia which is potentially dangerous for me and the baby.

-I am only supposed to go to the doctor every two weeks, but now I go every couple of days to monitor my blood pressure.

-I could have her August 2nd, but if something with my diabetes or blood pressure causes her to come earlier then she may be earlier than that.

Just pray for us or keep us in See More

C-section is set for August 2nd. Which gives us 50 days unless something happens before then. ♥️♥️♥️

So because everything looks really good, my placenta moved, and my daughter is getting really big really quickly, my midwife thinks she will come earlier. Now that I have a gestational diabetes diagnosis, she will have to come earlier if I can’t regulate my sugar. If she stays in too long it has certain health risks.

She cautioned me to tell my husband to take off the last week of July…….😱 She can come any time between then and August 9th. August 9th is her officially official See More

Welp. I have gestational diabetes. 🫡 (gestational means only during pregnancy).

A 1 hr. glucose test is where they make you fast for 8-12 hours aside from protein and water, and you drink this 10oz of a sugar(glucose) solution in 2 minutes.

You sit there for an hour and then they do bloodwork to check your blood sugar.

I drank the solution in 40 seconds and I thought it tasted like red gatorade, but most girls hate it and says it makes them get sick. I knew this was a red See More

I’m officially in my third trimester… 72 days until my due date but I’m sure I’ll be induced earlier once I tell them I want a c-section.
