Any one with a similar preclampsia scenario?

I'm 34 weeks + 1 today - uk if it makes a difference, I have preclampsia. I have symptoms and had over active reflex two days ago (but only when checked on sitting up as i struggle to drop my weight lying down) , last night I had magnesium which was decided to be stopped early, yesterday i received steriod injections in my thigh - two lots. Labs aren't very out of control and urine is currently clear. My alt was 55 which then raised to 101 sunday, it then raised last night to 133, 144 and now 164. Midwife said the thing confusing the doctors is its a slowly increasing trend not a big jump. Early delivery of baby keeps being mentioned but they're not sure yet if that'll happen. They can't decide a full plan and just keep saying we have to see what happens tomorrow. They're going to take my bloods again in the morning. I guess I'm just wanting to ask if any one has been in this situation before as its horrible not knowing what's going to happen, I understand every situation is different but I'd love to hear everyone else's outcomes. The last consultant I saw about two hours ago said he'd suggest if my symptoms are the same tomorrow, he'd deliver baby, however he's not in and it's the consultant who is on tomorrow's decision and they keep having different ideas.

Delivery sounds like a good option. Doesn’t sound like your bloods will be better, but if they are a lot better then that’s a good thing for your health, just means riding the rollercoaster a little longer!! I hope the birth goes really smoothly for you, 34 weeks is a great gestation and baby will be just fine :)

Thankyou all for your support and help - baby was born via c section at 12.36 pm and he's on oxygen and they think he's got a respiratory infection but he's doing well otherwise.
