I came here to see if it was PE too. Keeping the Duggar family and especially baby Josie in my thoughts and prayers.

thats what I thought when I first heard she had high blood pressure/gall stone problems

I have thought about this all day. Just the thought of right now someone is going thru what I just went thru

mother bear,
me too! Either very severe PE or HELLP. But with the pain one expects of gallstones and a 25 week delivery - it screams HELLP syndrome.

[mother bear]

When I hear suspected gallstones and pre-e and very premature delivery in the same sentence, I usually think HELLP Syndrome?

Oh, no....not good news but I'm glad they both pulled through. I hope she knows that she can come here for support. Many of us have walked in those shoes, and it's a long road. The family will be in my prayers.

I am so sorry to hear this - I hope for the best for mom and baby.

All the news articles I saw said that she was suffering from gallstones - I wondered if it was really pre-e - I wish the news would be more accurate.

I saw this on my June 05 babies board. Then went to People to check it out, then came here to see if it was due to pe. Amazing how this disease hits. I believe all of her babies have been born at full term except the first set of twins.

Sending many prayers. She sounds to be a good size for 25 weeks.
