Told to stop working early due to high blood pressure.

Hi everyone,I am 34 weeks and 5 days and just had my doctor's​ appointment. She has ordered me to stop working because she is worried about preclamcia. I have been feeling a little overwhelmed by this news because my husband and I have been trying for our little miracle for 10 years.  Has anyone gone through this? Just need to know I'm not alone and maybe hear some stories of things turning out ok.
