6 days away from EDD they will probably keep her in if and if she has pre eclampsia induce.

all you can do is be there for her and support her. she is in the right place and hers and the babys safety are the most important thing

If it is left it can lead to major complications for her................the baby will be almost ready for delivery now anyway, so they will make the decision for her.

She is in the right place.

Thanks Kitty. That's my understanding of it too. She's getting herself into a right state about staying in and I feel so helpless ......... I don't think they induce unless they really have to......but I don't know enough about it to be any real comfort to her xx

I think I'm right in saying the cure for pre-eclampsia is having the baby...............once delivered the mother is well again very soon.

I hope all goes well for them all.

Hi

Anyone got any experience of this? My friend is due to have her baby on 16th June and is now showing signs of this.......

She's has all the usual symptoms......high blood pressure, swollen (VERY) legs and ankles and doctors have detected a small amount of protein.

What are the chances of her being induced if it's a mild case and the baby is doing ok?. And also do they usually hospitalise mothers til the birth if it's a mild case?.

She's been in hospital now for 24 hours and is starting to get very worried and upset which won't help at all ........ Poor girl has had enough.. Thanks all xx
