i went through the same thing with my first. i had very high amounts of protein in my urine. protein in the urine can be a sign of high blood pressure and gestational diabetes. both are dangerous for the baby because they cause the baby to grow faster and bigger than average. The growth can cause problems with the lungs and other body functions which can lead to a stillborn, i actually had a friend who baby died to her high blood pressure.They sent me to do the 24 and end up having to induce me because they said there were too many risk for the baby to saty in. i was about 37 weeks. My daughter was fine and i am sure your son will be fine. I wish you the best

actually protein in your urine is a sign of pre-eclampsia. so they want to probably check you out and make sure everything is going okay. you are practically a few days away from full term so them even to be talking still born is insane. If they think there's a chance for that, they should be taking the baby NOW - it's full term and will probably be able to go home in 2-3 days.

I think you sono doc might be worrying you about nothing. I know lots of people who have had big babies and they were perfectly healthy. My friends baby was bigger than yours at that age and they had to induce labor early, because he was getting so big but other than that he is a perfectly lively happy healthy baby.
