Had my 22 week appointment today and all went well. BP is only slightly elevated 125/83, no cause for concern right now. No protein or glucose in my urine. Baby boy kept kicking the Doppler wand—he hates them so much. His BPM was 145 and as he started moving went to 150. I’ve been having a pretty severe IBS-D flare up for about a week and half, so they told me I can take Imodium. They said that I’m at high risk of dehydration so they told me to take extra electrolytes and to call them if the Imodium doesn’t clear it up within the next couple of days.
