Pregnancy question ?
Has to do with my daughter-in-law - her doctor is keeping a watch on her blood pressure and is sending her to the hospital for some tests . There is concern of blood pressure , borderline diabetes and toxemia . Is that very serious?
Thank you both for your great answers . I am so worried about both the baby and my daughter-in-law. By the way her due date is April 15 th.
gestational diabetes will go away after the pregnancy ends, it’s a warning sign that she might be diabetic later in life though. i know toxemia/pre-eclampsyia is serious but is usually avoided through induced labor. they’ll probably keep monitoring the protein in her urine and have her monitor her blood sugar. it’s not fun but it’s best for her and the baby.
