preeclampsia

edited March 2016 in May 2016 Moms
Well after the 24 hour urine collection the doctor officially diagnosed me today with preeclampsia. Anyone else going through this or have with other pregnancies and have any tips for managing?  I'm almost 32 weeks and they want to try to get to 38 before inducing

Re: preeclampsia

  • I haven't been diagnosed with pre eclampsia yet, but I have been with pregnancy induced hypertension. It seems like my doctor's think it is only just a matter of time before I have the pre e diagnosis. I just did another 24 hour collection on Saturday and haven't heard the results yet. My blood work results all looked good but I'm not sure about my protein level. My doctor is already talking about inducing at least a week early.

    I have not been diagnosed with pre-eclampsia, but I have been told that I will be having weekly visits with blood and urine samples being taken and induced between 37-38 weeks due to my high blood pressure. 
  • i had preeclampsia with my last two babies and they belive most likely ill have preeclampsia with my third, i havent been diagnosed yet but i am starting to get spotting in my vision and horrible migranes that wont go away, just waiting for doctor to call me back on what he wants to do (weekly visits or not) my female doctor wants to try and keep him in there till 38 weeks as well so we will have to wait and see :( im kind of worrying now.
