Hypertension/preeclampsia

claudia
I had hypertension for my first pregnancy towards the last month of my pregnancy. Currently TTC #2 daughter will be one in August. My labor was horrible, I had low potassium, they told me I could be discharged and left to die (scared me) I had barely enough fluid for my baby to move around. Was in labor for 36 hours non stop contractions. Ended up getting a fever then once my daughter was born she was in icu for 3 days due to have jaundice, high blood pressure and a fever. 
​I am so scared if my second pregnancy would be similar, should I wait longer to conceive. I'm so scared but really want another baby. Scared I'd have to see my next baby hours after I've given labor and seeing him/her in all kinds of IVS and machines connected too. :(
