Those with #2 or more who had pre ecclampsia the first time....

Did you develop it again or does your dctor think you will?

I developed it when I went into labor my BP was perfect until then. I was told by my maternal fetal doctors last time and my regular OB this time that the likelihood of getting it with the 2nd or other future children was very rare (provided you have the same father). It may depend on when you get it and your family history I don't know - but I'm still being monitored but my BP has been excellent so far but I'm not expecting an issue.

Yes, I pretty much had the same situation and my doctors told me the same thing - so I am keeping my fingers crossed...

No, I did not and was told my chances of developing it were less the last time around.

I am 30 weeks now and havent gotten it yet but they are watching me very very carefully. I am now on bedrest bc they saw my bp jump a little and then they saw notching in the uterine walls. This is a sign that it could happen again. I had it 31-32 weeks last time.
