So at my 36 week appt, my ob found a 1+ protein in my urine. He said nothing to worry about now. Well Tuesday, I went in for my 37 week appt. Again, he found 1+ protein in my urine. He said either a one time reading of 2+ or two 1+ findings in a row needs to be checked. My BP was also elevated. He gave me a collection container for a 24 hours urine protein screen. I was not sure of my BP at Tuesday's appt. I called and got the last 4 BP readings from my last 4 visits, (105/67, 100/64, 106/73, and 111/69 on Tuesday's visit) and I was shocked. I know "text book" my BP is normal, BUT, it's high for me. I usually run 90's/60's. 10-20 points higher than your normal baseline is considered elevated. I checked my BP at work yesterday and today. Readings were 113/53 and 113/58. They seem to keep going up.
I completed my 24 hour urine collection this morning. I have to take it to the lab today and hopefully get results tomorrow. I am just glad that I will be 38 weeks on Saturday and if they induce/bed rest, we will be ok.
I know this could have gone in the spam thread, but I was wondering if anyone else has been diagnosed with preeclampsia or is being screened for it?
I got my lab results today. I had some protein in my 24 hour urine, but not enough for a dx of pre-eclampsia. I am really happy about that. I did star having bloody show today, so hopefully the wait is close to an end! Thank you all for the support!
