OB appointment

I also saw the OB today - it sounds like we will be seeing each other weekly now since my braxton hicks are still pretty frequent if I stand up and walk around

On a concerning note... my platelet count has dropped yet again and is quite low (let's just say that some of my patients would POSSIBLY require a platelet transfusion pre-op at my levels). I know it's from my arthritis medication... so the new question is - do we stop the medicine or do i risk needing a transfusion so i don't bleed out after delivery. OF COURSE as this all comes up, my pain level has increased... ugh. I think the other worry is my kidneys... if I stop the medicine is my protein level gonna jump and be an issue for my girls?
