Postpartum preeclampsia

I was swollen the entire pregnancy, my bp shot up and was put on bed rest the last month, but I didn't have enough protein for 'preeclampsia'- it decided to come full force after I had Brooks- I actually have never heard of postpartum preeclampsia until now- I had to go back into hospital last Monday and be put on magnesium sulfate drip for 24 hours- my bp meds have been upped again and they added in hydrochlorothiazide to help get it under control- I just wanted to give everyone insight on this because it hit me like a load of bricks- slowly, it is getting under control- still a scary thing-
