I’m considered high risk because of my blood pressure.

I was highly risk , I had preeclampsia x

I developed severe gestional hypertension and was diagnosed with preeclampsia at 32 weeks with my first. I’m pregnant now and on baby aspirin.

Hi! I have lupus and I’m 22 weeks, and I’m considered high risk as well. Once you go to high risk doctor they explain everything and make you feel really comfortable and help you and the baby! I love going !!! They always monitor the baby and your health as well.

I am considered high risk too for preeclampsia and will need to take aspirin from 12 weeks. A lot of us are in the same boat. I have worried about it but it’s likely we’ll be monitored extra closely throughout our pregnancies which is a positive

I’m high risk due to history of preeclampsia, RA, my age, extra amniotic fluid, and starting to retain fluid along with blood pressure starting to rise.
I’m 35 weeks.

I’m high risk due to having Fibro, me and rls also depression and anxiety.. and the medication I’m on.. I’ve had to take aspirin through both pregnancy’s.. one being last year, gave birth in January.. and tbh I’m glad I’m high risk, get to see your baby more, scans regularly and being checked, your not being left alone and only seeing your baby at 12 and 20 weeks and then when born... also labour wasn’t bad, I knew that I had everyone there ready incase anything went wrong.. and I will with my twins aswell... relax and enjoy seeing your baby grow x

I am. I have neuropathy which requires monthly IVIG, chronic neck and back pain and other medical issues. I had undiagnosed preeclampsia at 33 weeks and gave birth via emerg c. I ended up with postpartum eclampsia that required 5 extra days in hospital, put on magnesium sulfate, iv and oral blood pressure medication. It was miserable and I almost died because my woman dr was trying to discharge me. I am about 6 weeks or so, but will be discussing my high risks AGAIN with my new ob at my appt. Not dying due to neglegence on a different doctor's part.
