Anyone have preeclampsia with just high blood pressure as their symptom?
@gypsymomma, I would definitely get a 2nd opinion. My ob induced me at 37 weeks just because my blood pressure was high. He didn’t want to risk anything happening and he felt comfortable enough for my son to be born.
@wolfe1134, thanks. I’m gonna try. I have back to back baby showers this weekend and next. And next week is going to be my last week of work unless doc says different at my appt.
@tianadavis216, my blood pressure isn’t super high but it is high. She has been worried about it in the past. So we will see what happens at my next appt.
I started high blood pressure medicine & aspirin at 13 weeks because my pressure was 160 over something when I had went to the doctor & she wanted me to take the medicine so that the chance of me getting preeclampsia at 20 weeks would be low .
@gypsymomma, thank you I have and they told me to keep an eye on it and if the dizziness becomes worse then they will see me before that. And I hope you also feel better
@wolfe1134, hopefully you feel better soon. I’d call the doctors office and let them know what’s going on.
I’m not sure if I have it but I don’t have to much swelling but I get headaches everyday sometimes they just don’t go away I get super dizzy to the point of throwing up but my next appointment isn’t till the 2nd of August
@db413, I’m wondering if I don’t have preeclampsia and the doc just doesn’t think it’s a problem.
@gypsymomma I did, my heart rate was also always high..... Idk if that goes with it. I swelled up, I gained 6lbs and lost 4lbs all in the same week. I did a 24hr urine test.... While doing my 24hr check just going from the doctors to the hospital my BP went down to normal.... My body was crazy tho.
@db413, thanks. I have a friend that is a midwife that I have been talking to.
