DynnaB Thanks for ure reply i think u have gave me the kick up the bum i needed! Although i have been to hospital quite alot up untill last week but since then ive got worse, i thought because my blood pressure wasnt sky high i didnt have it, i think ill give mw a wee ring now ill get back to ya thanks again, xx

You dont have to have High BP to have PE

ive had it with both of my pg's and not had high bp (weel around the 80/85) mark when i was at my worse but i was having kidney failure because of the protien and urea in my blood

PE is a strange thing it effects people differently i think if you hav emore then 3-4 symptoms then its pretty save to say you have it.

keep getting yourslef checked i had my ds at 35weeks after a 4weeks stay in hopsital and we were both very poorly, my dd was born at 37 she was fine but my kidneys have suffered and arent what they were. (mine wer eboth induced aswell)

Hey girls thanks so much for ure advice and stories!!!

Today i just have a trace of protein.

Im keeping an eye on myself atm and if need be i will be going to the admissions unit in hospital to get checked out!

think someone asked oif i was measuring smaller, sorry i can never rem names, i am actually measuring a good bit bigger, by scans and fundal height! at 29 weeks baby wass weighing just over 4 pound the consultant said, he said to expect a 9 pound baby....

im really hoping ill go early or else they will induce me because im suffering with spd too!

If I was your MW I'd send you the the maternity unit!  All of that really does sound like the symptoms of PE.

Yes it is. Also are you small for your size (baby bump)? Right through mine I was getting migraines (which I have grown up with) and then had swollen feet. Plus I have always had UTI's my whole life so ignored them off. My problem was becasue I had them before I was pregnant my m/v just kept reminding me of the signs, but I didn't have the classic one. I have low blood pressure so of course my b/p was never going to be really high. To top it all off, I was not seen by my m/v until 5 months (out of country) and they did not take a first b/p reading so by then I was already suffering from it.  It was not until the end when my b/p went sky high, measuring only 36/37 weks @ 40 did they suspect . I was automatically admitted in hospital, induced and then after having LO was re admitted and put on medication. Not everyone is the same, and I was getting my b/p checked everyday from about 30 weeks at work. I found out later once I stopped the medication that a normal person b/p in my case would have been high for me. It is always good to check and be on the safe side.

I would definately go to mw and tell her all this if u cant speak to her go the fetal assessment unit mine was great. I had all the symptoms of PE with ds apart from the uric acid- i had to hae growth scans and be regularily monitered. It is strange with the eyes as this ball of light is normally caused by the high bp builds up pressure behind the eyes hence the spots ( thats what i was told at the time). My ds was born 4 days overdue day before induction booked as never developed into full PE.

un, none of that sounds good!  If it aint PE then I would def get it checked anyway!

Hi everyone i have all the symptoms of pre eclampsia apart from high blood pressure, i was just wondering will this def lead to pre eclampsia or is it possible for me to have all these things wrong but it still not be pre eclampsia???

I get bad headaches, my feets ankles legs and face and very swollen and started to put on alot of weight, but its all fluid, my legs and fert are cramping and tightening quite often and sometimess look purple, i ve had protein in my urine quite a bit too and also my vision is awfull!! i see balls infront of my eyes and sometimes like shooting things in the corner of my eyes and i cant seem to focus properly this is every day now!

I was at hospital for my 29 week app last week and they didint say there was any problems but im still concerned because of all the symptoms i very clearly have!

Is it poss to have pre eclampsia even if ure bp isnt high or will it usually start with all these other symptoms and then lead to high bp?

Sorry about going on im a bit scared and not sure weither i am over reacting..
