Am I likely to be induced early?

[FakeTurtle]

Hiya,

I had my normal midwife appointment at the GP today and she measured my protein in my urine as 3+++ and my blood pressure was 140/100 which is very high for me. So she immediately sent me to the hospital.
I was monitored for an hour or so and at one point my blood pressure was at 171/90. I've had swelling of my ankles, feet, calves, hands and my face. Headaches and black floaters in my eyes over the past week. They haven't said it's pre-eclampsia as don't have all the results back yet.
They are keeping me overnight. Have put me on labetalol, iron tablets (also super iron deficient and b12) and injecting steroids. Since then my blood pressure has responded well and gone to 129/74 which is still high for me but a lot more normal. I wanna just put this to me being run down the past few days as I've had the flu - throwing up the lot.
But there has been talk of me being induced early from the midwives and nurses between 34 weeks - 38 wks (I'm currently 31+2 days).
I want to know if this is likely to happen? I'm booked with work to take maternity when I'm 39 weeks? So I need to know to plan ahead but they are being very vague with everything.
Would love to know anyone's past experiences? I think because I'm responding well to the medication I should go to my due date but I need to know because I don't wanna leave work early if I don't need to. I know no one is my doctor in here just want some idea if anything!
Thank you!

Its most likely they would induce once its safe to do so and if they can keep your BP at a good level.

I was induced at 37 weeks right after my midwife appt as my bp was 154/90 and had +3 protein in my wee

@purplepolo do you think so? I'm responding well to medication now. Just wish I had same answers but all so vague at the moment!

Guess no one really knows from past experience. Still at the hospital now getting monitored even tho blood pressure has gone up but still within normal range

I should think you will be induced at 37 weeks at the absolute latest but very possibly before that sorry. It depends a bit on what your blood pressure and symptoms do and if the baby keeps growing ok but I would anticipate an early delivery

In my experience they like to keep baby in there / avoid induction as long as is safe to do so. So daily monitoring / being admitted to the ward is quite usual. They tend to take it a day at a time and reevaluate based on the test/ monitoring/ scan. If they decide it's just kit safe to leave baby or the cons outweighs the pros for not inducing you the. They'll do it.

It's a stressful time. I would work and work on the assumption you'll be going on maternity leave earlier than planned. Even if they don't induce you sounds like you'll be in for monitoring etc so not really able to work

There’s some information here that you might find useful OP: www.rcog.org.uk/globalassets/documents/patients/patient-information-leaflets/pregnancy/pi-pre-eclampsia.pdf

@mrbob I'm hoping that if I keep responding well to medication I'll be okay but sounds like a hope that more than likely isn't gonna happen 😬 They've sent my wee sample off again because they didn't believe the high result with how well I'm responding but I won't find that out until tomorrow.
@Mintypea5 maybe I'm just being a big control freak and tryna plan everything unnecessarily. It's my first baby so just need to realise things are going to go that way.
I'm going to try and talk to my work (they are trying to not pay me smp illegally) which is part of the reason I'm getting so stressed.
