Pre-Eclampsia is a serious condition that can develop during pregnancy and is characterized by high blood pressure and the presence of protein in the urine. It is important to closely monitor your blood pressure and any proteinuria to ensure the health and safety of both you and your baby. While high blood pressure readings above 140/90 mmHg are a concern, the decision to perform an emergency c-section is not solely based on blood pressure levels. Your doctor will assess various factors such as the severity of pre-eclampsia, the gestational age of the baby, and the overall health of you and your baby before deciding on the best course of action. It is crucial to follow your doctor's recommendations and attend all prenatal appointments to monitor your condition closely. If necessary, your doctor may recommend induction or a c-section to safeguard the well-being of you and your baby. Try to stay calm and trust your doctor's expertise in managing pre-eclampsia. Remember that their priority is the health and safety of you and your baby. If you have any concerns or questions, do not hesitate to discuss them with your healthcare provider for guidance and reassurance. https://invl.io/cll6she
