Preeclampsia?

Question

Anyone due in feb with preeclampsia? How do you feel? What has changed when you go in to see your dr? Idk if I have it but I just got back my results and I’m not sure what they mean

I see my dr in a few days so hopefully if somethings wrong she’d call me.

Answer

I thought I had it again. But apparently the urine test is for normal people too. The numbers vary for pregnant women. Mine we are red and I was cleared. Make sure to look up those numbers before you worry yourself.

Answer

I'm not sure if I'm right since I usually wait for my doctor to explain this information to me but it looks like you have over 300 mg of protein in your urine during the time of your 24 hour urine which would classify you as preeclamptic. If you are having high blood pressures accompanied with more than 300 mg of protein in your urine they will most likely put you on bed rest and continue to see you every week since preeclampsia can get very bad very quick. If your blood pressure starts and continues to be above 150/90 even with rest they will admit you until they feel its time to deliver the baby since that is the only way to cure pree. I had pree with my first and ended up being induced at 35 weeks and 4 days and had him by csection at 36 weeks because of how high my blood pressure was. With this pregnancy my blood pressures have been up and down ranging from 160/110 to 130/70 and my 24 hour results have come back around 280mg so they said im borderline preeclamptic. I'm not on bed rest but I do have to take it easy and lower my salt intake in hopes that it won't escalate to full on preeclampsia. I'm currently waiting on my 3rd 24 hour urine results since my blood pressure has been spiking again, fingers crossed they come back good I'm currently 32 weeks and 3 days so baby is no where near ready to come yet.
