I take 100mg of labetalol 2x a day. It really does help. Initially my bp was really high, 193/120! I was really scared, they sent me to the ER. I've never had bp issues before. I hope it all goes away after I deliver.

I had to do it as well. It was because my blood pressure was really high and they are worried about possible preeclampsia. If there's too much protein in your urine it means your kidneys could be shutting down and not filtering properly. And that can lead to not enough nutrients for baby. also with high blood pressure you could have a heart attack or stroke. My urine test was normal buy they still put me on meds for high blood pressure. Hopefully everything will work out and you and baby will be just fine.

Mine came back borderline. More protein than what's normal but not bad and my blood pressure has borderline the last few appointments as well. They're keeping an eye on me because my family history is against me. Every woman in my family has ended up pre eclamtic so we're just waiting for it to hit me.
