Preeclampsia coming?
I was induced with my first at 39 weeks for preeclampsia. I occasionally saw spots but that was my only symptom until my feet swelled up to twice their normal size. I called the doctor and was told to be seen at the delivery ward, where my urine had elevated levels of protine (was never told the actual numbers) and was induced that night.
This time around I have been having higher blood pressure readings (elevated to stage 1 hypertension at times) and I am constantly seeing spots or having blurred vision with headaches. I was just seen at 34 weeks for bleeding, and I had a protine urine level of 1.7 and my cbc blood draw results were "high". I am 35+4 now, and I feel like my health is rapidly declining. I have an appointment on Thursday, and I have the strongest feeling I will be induced then. Does this sound likely to anyone else? I am trying to be calm but stuff really seems to be piling up.
