I am 36 weeks and 4 days with twins which is very good. I found out on Friday that I have preeclampsia (toxemia, pregnancy induced hypertension) My blood pressure was elevated a little last week and I have a fair amount of protein in my urine along with a ton of swelling that is pitting if a finger gets pressed into the top of my foot.
The doctor told me to keep my feet up, lay on my left side and drink lots of water over the weekend and then he would see me at my reg appt on Tuesday.
Since one of my boys is breech he wants to schedule a c-section for 39 weeks. (this was before the toxemia) Do you think it's possible to make it that far now without causing complications to me or my boys?
What has been your experience? Thanks!
