36 weeks & protein in urine, might be preeclampsia?

Advice

Hey there! I am 36 weeks on the dot today and have had gestational high blood pressure since before 20 weeks of my pregnancy. Today I had my 36 week appt and NST and did a urine sample and my dr explained that I had a small amount of protein in ny urine which they want to rule out preeclampsia. So, I have to go get bloodwork tomorrow, monitor my blood pressure over the weekend and on Monday my dr will call me with the results and essentially when I need to come in to be induced (likely a week from today at 37) if my bloodwork shows I have preeclampsia.

Did this happen to you? Did you end up having preeclampsia?
