Preeclampsia

Mary Lou

I had my weekly appointment today I'm 36 weeks and 3 days. My doctor told me that my body isnt processing sugar right and is going to my urine. I had high blood pressure and now my body is starting to swell. Anyone with preeclampsia how are you dealing with it and if it gets bad what do you do?? My doctor pretty much told me to drink lots of water from now until my next appointment to see how it goes.

I thought when it was this late in the game and you get preeclampsia they take baby right away.

I'm out of breath, upper belly pain, swollen feet and hands, high blood pressure and itchy skin

It depends on the severity. If your kidney/liver labs aren’t declining they will most likely wait till 37 weeks (“full term”) that’s what they’re doing with me

I actually googled a symptom today and getting worried. I was at the doctors yesterday and blood pressure was fine. But today I’m really out of breath and my upper belly hurts. Do you have though symptoms?
