Ladies who have/had Preeclampsia

T

Hi! This is directed towards the ladies who previously had or currently have preeclampsia. I’m checking in with my doctor tomorrow morning for sure, but am asking this question out of curiosity. I’m 35 weeks and 4 days, and for the past 3-4 days have noticed a pretty large increase in the amount of swelling in my hands and feet. I know swelling in late pregnancy is very common, but my mom (who happens to be a retired Obgyn) is concerned enough that she told me to check in with my doctor in the morning. The increased swelling comes and goes though. Was your preeclampsia swelling constant or did it come and go? I have had an occasional headache as well but what pregnant woman hasn’t? Thanks!
