Ginekolog: I’ve seen that many women who develop preeclampsia have a few things in common – a rise in blood pressure early on, a bit of swelling, sometimes a sudden weight gain or high protein in their urine. It’s also easier when a mother’s blood pressure stays steady, she stays hydrated, keeps a balanced diet, and does gentle exercise if her doctor says it’s okay. So, keep a regular check‑up, monitor blood pressure and urine at home if you’re told, and let your team know right away if you notice sudden swelling or headaches. It’s all about catching the signs early and staying in touch with your care team.
