Has anyone had preeclampsia?

Question

I am 35 +3 weeks and have a lot of swelling in my feet and hands, a bit on my face. Blood pressure has been normal up until this morning (150/90), it then gradually went down to 130/75. There is a small amount of protein in my urine but bloods are normal. Question, is this how preeclampsia begins? Would you expect blood pressure to come back down? Thanks in advance ladies x

Answer

I went for an appointment and my bp was 205/98 due to severe preeclampsia I had to go to l&D to be monitored.. I stayed at the hospital until my baby was born at 35 weeks.. good luck

Answer

Have youbtold your doctor? My friend had numbers like that and tbey always worried when the bottom number hit 90. Given the swelling also is a sign. If you haven't told the doc definitely call them in the morning or maybe an after hour number? Just to be on the safe side

Answer

I would talk to your doctor ASAP if you haven’t already. That’s how mine started ( and with a migraine) and it got bad fast. I had to be induced at 36 weeks and had my baby at 36w4d.
