Last week when I went for my check up at 34+3 they send me for 2 days to the hospital for monitoring . I have been having protein in my urine for 3 check ups now . They have not been worried but this time my blood pressure was higher - 149/77 . I told them it's because I was nervous , because I wasn't sure if my water was leaking and it was too soon for that . My blood pressure was back down in 5 minutes when I calmed down but she insisted and send me to hospital . I was there admitted with early preeclampsia , which nobody understood because except small amount in urine I had no other symptoms ( no high blood pressure , no swelling , headache , blurred vision , nothing ) .
I am also getting ultrasounds 2 times a week to make sure baby is ok . And one doctor check up to check me up . They checked his measurements because babys tend to be smaller with preeclampsia . But he is big
They told me to come back if I have headache longer than 2 hours that doesn't go away with Tylenol . Or some of the other symptoms of preeclampsia . They still wanna induce me at 37 weeks tho
.
I think they wanna prevent anything bad happening .
So now I am diagnosed with preeclampsia even tho only symptom is protein in urine , but I am sure the doctors know what they doing ...
What I was wondering is ... Does any of you have experience with induction while having preeclampsia ? How was your experience ? Was it long ? Fast ? Or did it end up c-section ?
That's what I am worried about . I don't wanna c-section , I won't have any help after I have the baby and it's gonna be hard taking care of new born and 2 year old after c-section
So I was wondering what are the stories of labor / induction with preeclampsia , thank you
