protein in wee?

[kt6]

Just had my 38 week check up and have slighy protein in my wee, what does this mean?

It can be an early sign of pre eclampsia. I was induced at 37 weeks bc of pre eclampsia. My bp was slighty elevated and i had protein in my urine. Just keep an eye on your bp. Those were my only signs of pre eclampsia.

Just means you need more water,  you're dehydrated.

It means kidneys showing very minor stress. Make sure to keep up with lots of water, light exercise, and good nutrition and keep your feet elevated when you can :) Your Dr would have said if he was concerned

No not on anything. Everything has gone smoothly just wondered what peoples opinion was On the slight high protein

You don't meet the criteria for preeclampsia. Not on BP meds, right?

[kt6]

Think they said just slight protein and blood pressure was fine

[DADAT47]

Depends on the amount of protein and your blood pressure. The amount of protein should be compared to earlier prenatal labs.

Im pretty sure this means you have slight preeclampsia. Your dr should tell you. And possibly bed rest until birth.
