High-Risk Pregnancy

2nd pregnancy, pre e Q?

I had pre E with DS1. I started having Bps over 130/90 at 36 wks(plus other symptoms), did a 24 hour urine and my results were 298mg/ 24 hours. They decided to induce me at 37 weeks. 

Now with DS2, They decided to do a baseline 24 hour and it came back at 300mg/24 hour! My Bps have only occasionally  been high up to this point, but my concern is I'm not even 23 weeks yet. I've been eating healthy and trying to take it easy but other than that, I cant help but worry. Any words of wisdom for me?

  • When I did my baseline and follow-up 24-hour urine collects, my doctor told me anything up to 400 mg is considered "OK" ... It's when something is above that there's cause for concern. I realize that all doctors are different, but I'm hoping that yo
