So after 3 weeks of hospital bedrest due to non related preeclampsia issues I had my little munchkin!!! My bps held stable until 6 days postpartum where upon discovering my 160/100 pressure I took off to the er.. my labs all came back perfect but I was put on 30 Mg of procardia and am going into the...

I'm not exactly sure.. I have heard that tachycardia can be related to pre-e. They gave me a catscan and everything to check for a pulmonary embolism but those tests came back normal.

So I went to the er the other night for trouble breathing and feeling like I was going to pass out any second... oh and for having contractions that were making my previous classical c section scar hurt. They ran a bunch of tests an found that my heart rate was pretty high and my oxygen level goes d...

So sorry I didn't write back yet I just got so busy and excited after I heard from them yesterday. They called me later on in the day to tell me everything looked PERFECT on my test!!!!!! I am so glad everything is okay right now! I think they are going to have me start coming in once a week to do b...

I am seeing the doc. every two weeks now and I went in this morning at 11:00.. My bp goes as low as 94/43 at home and as high as 120/73 in the office because I get a little nervous.

I also read that it is good for your kidneys so I figure why not?? It does taste good ...

has anyone ever heard of scotchgard contributing to preeclampsia? I was cleaning my furniture today (white sofas with two toddlers!!) with some foaming scotchgard upholstry cleaner.. I didn't really think much of it because I just sprayed the foam on the armrests and a couple of other spots that I w...

well I haven't done any bloodwork or 24 hour urines recently as my doc. doesn't think it has been really necessary yet. My bp is holding pretty steady at low 100's/50's... some days it can get up to high 110's/60's (more-so lately)... I just get really nervous because of my fingers swelling (especia...

Soooo... I am 26 weeks and 4 days today. Just got back from my doctors appt. I have a couple of questions or concerns and I wanted to know if anyone on here had any insight. My munchkin was measuring big since the beginning ultrasounds.. at 18 weeks the baby was measuring about 20 or 21 weeks. At my...

No advice but just wanted to offer a little encouragement. At least your doctor sounds like she's being very pro-active which is great!
