Anyone with pre-eclampsia that I can talk to? I googled it and now Im kinda freaking out.
developed preeclampsia at the end of my pregnancy and was induced at 38w.
okay, that's one of the main symptoms. but that sucks. hope it goes well for you on your next appointment! @dawn.sander also swelling is another main one.
@mommytodelmar, she said my urine sample that day looked fine but protein in my urine isnt unusual for me cause I have a kidney disease so she said she cant really go by that.
Well that would probably be a good idea. Stay away from sodium and drink lots of water! Good luck
Do they check your urine also for protein in it? @dawn.sander
@turtle, Ive been to the doctor and she wants me to keep a chart of my blood pressure until my next appointment (next monday) cause she thinks I may have it.
I thought so too, but I am a ftm and honestly didn't know a thing about what was going on but I had all the symptoms of preeclampsia, I asked her multiple times about it and she blew me off or said "you don't have protein in your urine" and found out my urine was +3 they said and I was so swelled up that I could leave dents on my legs and feet and hands. I had it bad and she didn't bother to check at all. I was glad I went somewhere else @youngg.mommyy
You should probably go to the doctor if you're sure it's that.
that's honestly so dumb, you could've had a stillborn -___-
my doctor said it makes the placenta go bad which causes the miscarriage. @mommytodelmar
sorry.. that's just what I experienced. I had it since 36 weeks and my doctor didn't do anything until I went somewhere else and talked to someone else. they induced me at 39+5 @youngg.mommyy
they have to induce you with preeclampsia because it can actually cause a miscarriage.
i know someone that had their baby at six months because of it... @mommytodelmar
It's not as bad as the internet says, just swell up bad, high blood pressure, and if they have to, they'll induce you. Well that's what happened with me.
I had severe preeclampsia with my twins and I will have it with this pregnancy also I'm here to chat
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
I'm glad I called my doctor today. I'm kinda scared I could have it.
