^^They are all right. I had high BP and had to do a 24 hour urine test and came back with protein in my urine. As long as the protein is not accompanied by high BP or swelling, you're good. :) I'm actually being induced on the 14th at 37 weeks because of Pre E. I was diagnosed with it at 32 weeks and have been closely monitored since then.

I had protein In mine the first time so they sent me for another test and I was fine. I wouldn't worry if the doctor hasn't said to.

If your blood pressures normal than your fine. Preeclampsia is a mix between proteins and high blood pressure. I have proteins in mine also but they tell me it's fine

Well when my doctor said that I was leaking protein in my urine I also had high blood pressure so I had the condition called toxemia, and had to be admitted in the hospital for a week until I turned 37 weeks and than be induced, but don't worry because if you had that you will also have high blood pressure and your doctor would have told you. Just pray to God that you won't have toxemia but if you do don't worry about it! You can still have a healthy baby they just have to watch you closely,  I had a healthy 6 lb 10 ounce baby and now he is a 4 yr and is healthy and happy and I am 25 wks pregnant with a healthy baby. Good luck and may God bless you and your little one!

You could have pre eclampsia but I wouldn't worry about it if the doctor isn't worried
