Hospitalized for high bp

Hospitalized yesterday after my 33week appointment :( Doctor said I had high bp, swelling, and protein in my urine. They're keeping me for at least 24 hours for observation. Has anybody had this happen to them without it being preeclampsia? Well, at least I got to see my baby girl again and she's doing great so far. Prayers please!

I've been on meds for high blood pressure since I was 25 weeks. I've got 2 non stress tests on baby a week and regular Dr apt weekly. I've got traces of protien in my urine but my bp is staying lower bc of the meds. But I'm going to be induced at 37 weeks. I'm 35 weeks as of yesterday.

Good luck to both of you too! It looks like I'm here for the long haul, getting steroid shots for baby's lungs in case of emergency c section. A little disheartening, but if you all made it that far, maybe I can too. Thanks for the encouragement

Ive had high blood pressure my whole pregnancy. Im 35 weeks and just found out i have preeclampsia. They probably just want to be sure its doesnt turn into anything worse. Dr sees me ever monday and a non stress test for the baby every Thursday. He wants to induce me around 38 weeks. Good luck.
