Can anyone tell me what this means please?? So far I've always had NAD and nothing has been said to me about it?

Leukocytes and a trace of protein by the looks of it... did she mention a possible UTI? Have you had any symptoms of one?

I had small trace of protein in my wee yesterday at midwife appt (I’m 38+5) and she said she’s not worried but had i eaten brekfast yet. This was about 10 in the morning and I had literally scoffed a banana and cereal bar on my way there. But no concern? I think the same happened at the beginning of my pregnancy and at the time I was getting mild water infection symptoms. Try not to worry I’m sure the midwife would of said something xxx

Absolutely nothing has been said to me and I'm so worried that it could indicate pre eclampsia or I'm worried if I do have a water infection and it doesn't get treated... although I don't think I have symptoms.

I am a really bad stress head when it comes to my health :-( and until now my urine has always been NAD at every appointment :-(

Honestly do not worry! I know it's easier said than done but I am sure the midwife would have mentioned it if she was concerned.

I would suggest maybe phoning her or the local pregnancy unit at your hospital for advice?

And with regard to pre-eclapsia, there are quite a few other symptoms that go alongside it and a trace of protein doesnt sound very likely to be that - I had pre eclampsia in previous pregnancy and from last midwife appointment in this pregnancy at 36 weeks I had trace of protein but they weren't concerned as I dont have any other symptoms.
