How far along were you guys?? I'm 33 almost 34 I went to my family doctor for an ear infection and bp was high. She did a urine test and I had +1 protein... Ob wanted me in the next day .. my blood pressure was down at the ob app. And I was still +1 for protein so they did a blood test and am currently doing a 24 hr urine test..

They are worried I may get it with this one. I have some swelling (but I've lost weight) constant headaches and littke black floaters in my eyesight. My blood pressure is normally 120s/60s  today it was 150/84.... Hey said they are going to watch me and see what happens

I had it with my first pregnancy and was put on bed rest then I went in for a non stress test and was told I was going to be induced the next day. I had vey high blood pressure saw little sparkles and would get bad headaches a lot. My amniotic fluids were low too. This pregnancy I was put on extra folic acid which is supposed to reduce the chances ofbhaving it.

I had preeclampsia with my first pregnancy. It went undetected a long time. Went in to labor and delivery to get my cervix checked and my bp was 198/131. They rushed me to the children's hospital. My bp was too high that they wouldn't allow me to push my son out. I had him by emergency c section at 35weeks.
Im 23weeks with my second Im already showing signs that i will develop preeclampsia again.

I had it... But had no clue until I went to the hospital due to other reasons but They immediately rushed me to l&d and started inducing me..

My mom had it when pregnant with me. She went for her 38 week appt and they sent her to the hospital to induce her right away because of preeclampsia.
