I always suffered from migraines before my pregnancy and thought it would be normal to get them every now and then during my pregnancy. A little over a month ago, I went to the ER because of a migraine I had for 3 days straight. I started getting worried when I started swelling and I had protein in my urine because I had read about preeclampsia and it's symptoms, and those were 3 of them. Every time I'd go for my checkup, my doctors would ignore my swelling and say it was normal. My face, my hands, feet, legs and thighs were swollen to the point where I could barely walk and I couldn't do much on my own without having to ask for help. On Wednesday my boyfriend was really concerned because it was so much swelling, my legs felt as hard as rocks. I made an appointment for Thursday and they immediately sent me to the hospital after my appointment to have some "tests done." I then learned I had to get an immediate c section because my preeclampsia was really severe and it was dangerous for my baby and I. This could've been prevented if my doctors would have just payed more attention to the signs everytime I would complain. I wouldn't have needed to get a c section a month before my due date.
