I had my 37wk check up yesterday and my BP was slightly elevated. Checked my urine and they found "some" proteins but not enough to be concerned about. Concern was about my BP because it has been textbook perfect all through the pregnancy and I textbook perfect with my first pregnancy as well.

Then the MW booked my next appt and it isn't for 10 days so they can't be too concerned about it or they would have gotten me in sooner, right??

But I am curious if anyone knows about the occurrence of PE in second and subsequent pregnancies - if it did not occur in the first pregnancy?

I thought I read somewhere that it was most common in the first pregnancy, but now of course I cannot find it!!!!

Help reassure me!!
