I just wanted to share my experience so far, as I know a lot of the times we are scared to call up the hospital(which i do too)
So i have had some symptoms of pre eclampsia for the last few weeks, but haven't had any protein in my wee. The last few days my wee has become more concentrated and had a smell to it and also have been getting hand cramps in my sleep. So my friend who is a nurse tested my urine for an infection and it turned out i had high protein. I went home and called the hospital, worrid that i was wasting their time
Had all the tests done and I have pre eclampsia, and will be starting my induction in about an hour and a half!
When i got told I cried, even though its only a week early, ofcourse I am worried and my waterbirth that I intended is now out of the question!
But the pain thing is my lil man is ok, so please if you have an instinct follow it! Everyone says be cautious, don't worry if your down the hospital every day getting checked! Seriously its true!
Hope your all doing well will update with how it all goes xxxx
