23-7-2008 - pre - eclampsia worriedMy mood while writing this blog:
worried



I dont know if im worrying over nothing or if i should be worried! At my antenatal class this week we were discussing Pre-Eclampsia, and what the symptoms are...

  • Headaches
  • Blurred or altered vision
  • Abdominal or shoulder pain
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Confusion
  • Shortness of breath
  • Swelling of feet, hands or face

Well ive been gettin 5 of these symptoms but they could well be nothing. headaches are common in pregnancy, nausea, short of breath, swollen hands.. and the only one i was concerned about - the abdominal pains - my GP said was food poisioning! but ive had it a couple of times since and only after eating chicken!

Should i contact my midwife/GP or am i worrying over nothing!? could do with some advice on this one! Thanks Girlies

HI!!!! Your other blog said your blood pressure was a little low and that right there is great!!! The first major issue is high BP in pre-eclampsia then all the others then dumping protien in your urine. Trust me been there done that!!! Try not to worry!!!

When I read that list of symptoms, I thought, Hmmmm, I've got loads of those too, but I know I don't have pre-eclampsia. Going just on that description we could all have it, LOL... one of the classic symptoms of pre-eclampsia, though, is abnormally high blood pressure. Do you have this? If not, you're probably fine. If your BP is high, or if you don't know what it is, then absolutely contact your doc. But the BP is a big part of the condition even though it's not on the list you made. Hope that helps.
