Pregnancy after preeclampsia

We want to start trying for baby #2 pretty soon but I am sooooo nervous as my last pregnancy ended with severe preeclampsia and I had my daughter 6 weeks early. Has anyone experienced pregnancy after preeclampsia?! I`m also worried that I`m going to be pulled out of work much earlier due to the high risk and I know that will not go over well at work and I definately couldnt afford to lose my job :( Any input would be much appreciated!

This time around, she has none of that. (her doctor missed it last time because she had none of the swelling, protein in her urine or high blood pressure at her appointments. She was having flu like symptoms and wasn't sharing that with her doctor)

She's currently 25 weeks pregnant, so don't know the end result yet, but she is doing very well and her doctors aren't overly concerned about a repeat.
