Pregnancy after HELLP syndrome

I’m 13+4 with my second, after developing HELLP syndrome during labour with my first. I was fairly unwell and had a significant hospital stay as a result.

I was wondering if anyone has any experience of a further pregnancy after recovering from HELLP? Did you go on to develop it again?

Thanks 😊

Not me personally, but I know two people (a friend and my cousin) who has HELLP syndrome and were very sick in their first pregnancies. Both have had second and third pregnancies and have not had any simular issues again with subsequent children. :)

Following as I had pre eclampsia and then HELLP in my first pregnancy and am currently 7+5 with my second.
