I have never heard of a kidney infection being mistaken for PE. I never had a kidney infection either. I was just thinking that maybe the high white blood cells in my urine were some kind of sign that I was getting PE. I never did feel like I had a UTI and the Dr's always said I had no bacteria.

Congratulations! Hope you both are doing well.

That's interesting... When I was preg from the 8 weeks I was always told I have high Leukocytes (white blood cells) when they did the urine dip sticks at every check up. They actually sent me to the urologist because they believed I must have a uti infection even though there was no bacteria.

Where I live it's at 8 week to verify a heart beat and you get an ultrasound to confirm that it is a normal pregnancy. (Meaning like ectopic or any other things that happen.)

Yes the luteal phase is definitly an important part in acheiving a pregnancy. The fact that mine is always the same is definitly a good thing. I really believe my cycles are affected from stress.

I had always gotten my period on day 21 and then had a luteal phase of 12 days. After I had my son my ovulation day is all over the place, but still the same luteal phase at 12 days. The past 4 months have been ov day on 14, 18, 21, 15 , but my luteal phase is st ill the same. I am afraid their may ...

Does anyone know if late ovulation can be a cause of preeclampsia. I know that it is related to misscarriage because of the uterine lining and the embryo not attaching properly. I know I ovulated with my son at 21 days past my period start and got PE. Anyone have any imput?

I wouldn't worry about that. It is not a common thing. There are time when a Mom may need a blood transfusion to replenish bloodloss in a situation like this. I would not worry seriously.

Happy for you!! Congratulations!!
