Protein in urine??

Question

Just got back from my 38 week check up and my doctor told me I had protein in my urine. He explained preeclampsia to me and put me on an antibiotic for 3 days. My blood pressure was fantastic and I have barely any swelling. I have been having terrible migraines, nausea, and pains in my belly though. Should he be more concerned than he is??

Answer

I had to have an unplanned c-section last Friday at 37 weeks  due to pre-e and the baby was breech. They were super concerned and I had normal pressure and was spilling protein but no other symptoms.

Answer

I've had protein in my urine since 34 weeks and my BP has been normal ...I get head aches swelling in my feet and nauseous all the time...they arnt concerned I didn't even get any for it they are just watching my BP my repeat  c section is 13 days.

Answer

I had perfect blood pressure and no swelling but insane protein amounts in my urine and was preeclamptic. Doc wasn't concerned but I happened to see a specialist who was filling in for my doc who usually works at a much bigger hospital an hour and a half away and he flipped out on everyone telling them to transport me to his hospital and under his care immediately, that preeclampsia sometimes presents abnormally but it doesn't make it any less dangerous. I'd take it seriously.

Answer

Trust him. He'll keep an eye on you. If your BP goes up, it will be more of a concern.
