just wondering about everyone elses experiences, If you've had these issues(pre eclampsia/high blood pressure) in your pregnancies have you ever managed to have a pregnancy without issues afterwards?
hoping to not have any issues this time as I don't want to be induced AGAIN.
and if you have had subsequent pregnancies and had the same issues,please share so I can prepare myself for the worst and the long hospital stay.
my high blood pressure with dc2 never turned into full blown pre eclampsia so I am taking that as a positive sign for this time around.
thanks in advance :)

I had preeclampsia with my DS1 and was induced and then had to have an emergency section. I am currently pregnant with DS2 and have high blood pressure, which I am being medicated for, and being monitored by my doctor and have to have another c section as my risk of preeclampsia is very high due to my blood pressure shooting up around 11 weeks. Sorry I can't be more reassuring!
