Anyone else have to collect pee?

Question

So I passed my sugar test but now my doctor sent me home with a huge brown jug to collect a 24 hour pee sample. Anyone else had to do this? What were your results?

Answer

I had to collect for 3 pregnancies now. I have to do it because I had preeclampsia with my 1st. My results were always in the normal range.

Answer

I had to do 5 different ones over the course of my first pregnancy due to high blood pressure. 2 of which were overnight hospital stays. Everything ended up being fine, they were all precautionary to check proteins and monitor for preeclampsia

Answer

I did it due to high blood pressure. They weren't too concerned about pre-eclampsia at the time but they wanted the test to set a mark for what my normal is. That way if they do start to worry, they can test again and compare. I was 24 weeks at that time. Im 32 weeks now and meds have been keeping my BP in a great range and no signs of pre-eclampsia yet.

Answer

Yes I had because my blood pressure was high at first and luckily they didn't find any protein in my urine.
