Preeclampsia

Has anyone else been told they have preeclampsia I'm always stressed more because I'm borderline bed rest and dealing with all these come and go symptoms it's almost like when I tell someone about it for them to understand they look at me stupid and say things like you should be fine your just lazy and I'm ready to duct tape them I'm having to see a specialist because the chance of this turning to Eclampsia is so high for me scares me I wanted to know if anyone else has the same issue going on

Something similar yes. I have a high risk pregnancy and they’re watching me for preeclampsia too. I don’t have the high blood pressure but I have all the other symptoms.

I can relate to the comments. People just need to mind their own business about things that have nothing to do with them.

Take it easy if you can. Preeclampsia is so serious.

I had preeclampsia with my daughter. It's a scary experience and no one truly understands until they are going through it. I'm high risk for it again and they are watching me very closely. If you ever need to talk, I'm very open about my experience and happy to listen.

Friends wedding abroad

Hi all. I know this is FTM... But really need advice. I am currently pregnant with baby #2. Only 8 weeks. I didn't want to tell anyone yet, my partner and boss knows (needed for risk assessment reasons annoyingly). My friend is getting married in a remote part of Spain in ~3 months. I've already had a few minor complications, pain, bleeding, vanishing twin... I got preeclampsia last pregnancy and a terrible birth.
I am pretty sure I don't feel comfortable flying and then travelling out to a remote part of Spain during pregnancy. It will just be me and my toddler. I know it's overcautious but I just don't feel comfortable. I'm not even sure if I am going to be classified as high risk pregnancy or not.
How do I handle this? I need to tell her ASAP, but I didn't really want to tell anyone yet as doc told me miscarriage risk is a bit increased with vanishing twin. Any ideas?

Anxious/depressed

My first pregnancy symptom was my anxiety out of nowhere. I feel like I'm a bundle of nerves and just so scared of everything. Is anyone else feeling similar? How are you managing? Are we contributing it to hormones?

Sneak Peek Test

I did the sneak peek test at 15 weeks pregnant, and the results just came back girl! Has anyone ever taken the test, gotten girl, and it been wrong?
