FQ: Im currently 32 wks 5 days with my 5th child and first boy. With the exception of hyperemesis, all of my pregnancies have been normal. Last week I went for a regular prenatal checkup and my pressure was elevated and they found traces of protein in my urine. So, the took some samples of blood and had me collect my urine for 24 hours. The blood work came back normal, however, my urine came back slightly elevated w/ protein. So, now my doc wants to monitor me and I have an appt for tomorrow in addition to my appt for next week. Her nurse called me today and said I was mildly pre-eclamptic and she (my doc) says I dont have pre-eclampsia at all - YET. I cant say it doesnt bother me that they have me in this grey area. My question is: have any other mothers gone through this and if so, did you ever develop pre-eclampsia or was it just one of those things they cant explain? Also, did your doc push you for a c-section or were you able to go all natural? I havent seen my doc yet, so, I dont know if thats what shell want to do, but she knows Im against it. Ive pushed all of my babies out and would prefer it that way. Lastly, is there anything I can do to turn this thing around? Naturally, of course. Should I increase my leafy greens, eat more fruit, is there a special tea I should drink? Thanks in advance for any help. Im trying not to freak out. Blessed be. ~6
