Pre eclampsia worries

Hey can anyone help please? I’m 24 weeks pregnant and I’ve had a constant headache for ages! I go to sleep with it and wake up with it! I’m also absolutely exhausted even though I’ve slept really well! I saw my midwife on Thursday and she wasn’t concerned but they picked up trace protein in my urine. My blood pressure was normal though. I had preeclampsia last time but didn’t get it until my due date and was induced a few days after.

I’m so worried about this headache and low energy but not sure what to do because I have a BP machine at home and my BP is normal!! Any advice???

I’m currently taking aspirin to help with blood flow

Are you drinking enough? I was terrible for it so even if you've drank loads drink more. Does the headache go with paracetamol?
Try and have little snacks frequently if you can. Could just be a combo of dehydration and being hungry. When's your next midwife appointment?

I have been drinking loads of water I’ve got a new water filter and I’ve already filled up my water bottle 3x today. I see my midwife again in around 5 weeks but I have a consultant appointment in between
