I am not sure what other symptoms there are, but if the professionals this time around know your history they should be super vigilant. So should you, make sure you persist and make them check everything! at every visit just to be on the safe side.
Good luck and congrats.
look i dont know alot about that but i went to the docs about everything even lil things if you get stressed and worried that in its self isnt good for your baby, if you think there is something wrong go to the doctor and say what you want and dont take no for an answer you no whats best for you and bub and if you are wrong then at least u know, but if you arnt do u really want to risk your bub to prove it dr dont take our feeling seriously enuf u need to speak up to them and make sure you are herd
With your history you should be monitoring your bp at home maybe a few times a day. Buy or borrow a machine.
If your obgyn didn’t recomend fetal monitoring at least weekly for last trimester, ask about it. This will show how baby is doing.
Talk to your doctor.
To manage your stress try massage and other relaxation methods.
Good Luck.
They will have to monitor you more closely than they did last time. You should have scans atleast once a week at and after 34 weeks.
Every pregnancy is different. Just because it happened last time doesnt mean it should this time.
You can get a home BP cuff and monitor it at home. Once it starts getting high go to the doctor or the ER.
Swelling of the hands and face, visual disturbances (see spots or flahes), dull painful aching in the belly, or lack of fetal movement can all be signs of preeclampsia. Beyond that, they can do 24 urine tests on you every week, or few days, and have you come in for blood work.
wow. Well you obviously have excellent mother instincts if you saw 3 dr and 2 midwives and STILL went to the hospital because you thought somethign was wrong. I had preeclampsia with my first and was induces at 38 weeks. With my second I didn’t have it at all and he was born at 41 weeks
