Magnesium therapy for preeclempsia

Preeclampsia usually occurs in the late 2nd or 3rd trimesters or in the middle to late pregnancy. Patient may experience sudden elevated blood pressure and also have excess protein in the urine. Some of the more noticeable symptoms of Preeclampsia are:

• Swelling of the hands and face/eyes (edema)
• Weight gain of over 2 pounds per week or a sudden weight gain over a couple of days

We have found that more serious swelling in the feet and ankles is also a common symptom. Have you ever noticed your OB or midwife pressing their fingers against your shin or sort of "pinching" your ankle? They are likely checking for preeclempsia (among other issues).

Preeclempsia can feel pretty helpless, but you may be able to do something to control it ahead of time if you have risk factors. Check out this article outlining a study in the UK on the use of magnesium as a therapy/preventative measure.
