At my 38 week appointment I was 2cm, 40% effaced, and I had some protein "spillage" in my urine, so my doctor had me do a 24 hr urine collection. Super exciting! She said if it came back 300mg, then game over, time to induce. Well... it came back 290mg. I wasn't sure if I should be relieved or disappointed. I was just really anxious to meet Baby Glassman! I basically just had to monitor my preeclampsia symptoms closely and call if anything got worse. I learned that one risk factor for preeclampsia is a history of rheumatoid arthritis, so that could have been a contributor to the scare. After three or four days, everything was pretty much back to normal, and we were back to the waiting game.
