My Chances for Eclampsia again

[Ella_Bella]

I had Eclampsia during my first pregnancy, what are my chances of having eclampsia again in my next pregnancy?
Is there anything I can do to prevent it of happening?
Please provide me with lots of information on Eclampsia to help me understand it more.
THANK YOU SO MUCH:)

My daughter had eclampsia, she had her seizure 3 days after she had the baby and was in the hospital for 4 days, I'm not sure they knew what they were doing, it's been 3 months now, with doctors telling her different things, different medicines, etc, she is now taking depakote and propranolol, but her head still hurts and she is having problems with her eyes still, the computer, lights and sunlight hurt her eyes, did you or are you still having these problems?  Her doctors just keep giving her the round around.  thanks

Thank you for getting back:) that's nice and wonderful that she didn't have to go through it again, I actually had eclampsia and not the preeclampsia so my experience was even nastier.  We want to have another baby but I am concern about the same happening again.  I know that I would be watched more closely but just to heat about other people's experiences helps a bit in making this BIG decition.  Thanks again:)

my bf's SIL had pre eclampsia with her first born and just delivered a very normal baby last week with no signs of pre eclampsia
