So weird

Did you know that with pre-eclampsia you swell in the craziest places? Well, a couple of my stretch marks have filled with puffy fluid on my belly. They are huge, itchy, and odd looking. And they feel like they are going to EXPLODE! OUCH!

Oh no is it now official that you have pre-eclampsia? When are the doctors thinking to deliver? My friend had to deliver within 18 hours from being (finally I might add) diagnosed and she was of course only 23w6d !!!

I am shocked you have preE and still have babies in your belly! When I was diagnosed they delivered IMMEDIATELY. Please rest, BE careful! I know they are watching you like a hawk! We keep praying for healthy babies and healthy mom, dad, and now grandma!!!

With the triplets, we have expected pre eclampsia the whole time. It's normal. Started spilling some protein weeks ago. Started seeing spots 2 weeks ago. And finally got the diagnosis based on 24 hour urine a week ago. We just wait and watch it! I have some lovely swelling and bp is holding around 130's/80's with bouts of 1-teens/70 late at night. So far, so good! We will be delivering soonish no matter what. This triplet stuff is quite an adventure!
