Pre-eclampsia

Are you having symptoms if so I’d let them know

@Sophie I keep being fobbed off at the doctors and pushed from pillar to post. I’ve been having really bad pain in my left side by my ribs, my legs at the bottom are killing me, like I’ve been to the gym and also Feeling really dizzy with very bad headaches. I’ve been to the hospital they’ve put me on antibiotics, I’ve ended up doing two weeks worth of them but no luck either with them😢 just don’t really know what else to do. Everyone keeps saying they don’t know what’s wrong, it’s just worrying me xx

I did. They didn't give me medication though, despite me having very high bp early on. At 20 weeks they told me the baby was too small and I ended up having a stillbirth at 27 weeks. This pregnancy Ive taken aspirin since week 11 and daily bp readings. This has kept it under control. Please keep advocating for yourself and keep on top of your bp readings. As soon as its high ask for medication or a higher dosage.

@Sonia I’ve been like this for 3 weeks and it’s getting worse. I’ve had protein in my pee and they said it was a urine infection. This is my second pregnancy and I never had this with my first. I do have an auto immune condition and I’ve read it’s more common with one of them??xx

@Georgia my baby only made it to 431g instead of the 450g they wanted. So they refused to take him out and just waited for him to die. I didn't get protein in my wee until a little later but i had high bp since around week 14. I tried everything, eating more, having protein shakes, taking random vitamins but nothing worked 😩 i hope it works out better for you ❤️
