High blood pressure
Headaches
Swelling to face, hands, feet. More than usual pregnancy swelling
Protein in the urine
You would get a blood test and monitored. Really wouldnt be a good thing if you had it this early. They would induce you.
Do you think you might have it? Ring MW ASAP

If you are feeling unwell please tell your midwife asap, I just had somebody I know become very unwell because of this and her organs started shutting down, luckily all is well now and bubs arrived safely, but could have been alot worse.

I have been told by 2 different MW's that its very uncommon to get it if you did not have it in your first pregnancy. Not sure how true that is though.

It IS very unlikely to get it if you didn't have it in the first pregnancy and don't have any of the risk factors
your first baby was born prematurely
• or was small in relation to the length of the pregnancy (small-for-dates)
• you have diabetes
• you are black
• you have chronic high blood pressure
• you are very overweight

And your baby's dad is the same as last time.
You can have a small amount of protein in your wee without it being a problem, it can also mean a UTI or sugar could be Gestational Diabetes, so a blood test just narrows it down.

I've had trace protein in my urine right along, they had it tested earlier on so they know not to worry if that shows up as I have several risk factors for PE, as well as having had it before
