Any of you have preeclampsia before?

I've been in the hospital for two days now monitoring my blood pressure. It's been high, going up and down. No protein in urine but I have swelling. They're afraid I may have preeclampsia. But I am only 24 weeks :( are my baby and I going to be safe? I know it requires early delivery, but are we even able to make it that far? I don't want anything happening to my baby :(

Plenty of women make it far enough to have a healthy baby while having preeclampsia. You'll probably just be put on bed rest. Don't stress so much, you'll be fine (:
