[quote=Anonymous]OP, I was admitted at 33.5 weeks with pre-e on Thursday, had the steroid shots on Friday and Saturday, and was induced on Sunday at 34 weeks. The labor itself was easy, no epidural needed, since he was small at 4 lbs 5 oz. DS spent 5 weeks in the NICU for A's and B's (actually just B's, he never had apnea). After that, he had a few sessions of PT for mild torticollis and is now a somewhat-small one year old (just 18 lbs). No nursing or feeding issues. He's such a happy smiley baby, now almost a toddler. The whole experience was scary, but all of the doctors and nurses were fantastic, and I saw many of them, both before and after birth. For myself, it was weeks before the swelling went down and I could stop the bp meds. It was over 10 months before the proteinuria resolved. I had expected the pre-e would go away very quickly after birth, but I guess sometimes it takes a long time. Good luck.[/quote]
