Go to the doctor quick to find out. My sister had these things but wanted to wait for her doctors appointment and when she went she had to be rushed to the hospital to deliver because her blood pressure was too high and she develpoed a disease called pre-eclampsia (only during pregnancy it happens). Her baby had to me born at 7 months. It is fatal more to you than your baby. Please schedule an appointment quick to find out if your ok and how much protien is in your urine. Good luck!

Hey I had preclampsia when I was 25 weeks pregnate and I had to be rushed to a hospital my body had fluid buid up really bad I was swollen really bad and I had bad headacks and dizzy. I stayed real sick and I slept all the time. Mine was so bad I about died and they had to deliver my baby and my baby did not make it he was stillborn. I would suggest you go to the doctor dont wait or hisatate to ask anything at all because its you and your childs life your dealing with. When you go to the doctor they should make you pee in a cup and test it right?? Well when they do ask them if there was any protine in it cause if they was it is a sign of preeclampsia also. I had alot of protine in mine. I wish you the best of luck I hope you have a healthy baby! Manda
