No, toxemia is a disease that affects the
kidney. And if your kidneys are affected
to a dangerous extent you would spill
protein which I believe is the red blood
cells. I have a chrinic kidney disease
and I spill protein all the time.

With my first I had high blood pressure
the whole pregnancy. I had to go off work
too. My ankles got swollen as well but
they told me it could be the heat as well,
my urine was clean too. 3 wks before I
had my baby they put me on bed rest cause
of my blood pressure. And when yor blood
pressure goes up like that it causes the
umbilical cord to tighten and the baby
don't get the oxygen so be careful and
take of yourself.
Good luck!

My first was the same, very very high
blood pressure even had to be medicated.
When I went to have him the bag was almost
dry from them giving me blood pressure
pills. But now as an adult he is low
blood pressure. Hhuummm!!
