This should be discussed thoroughly with your gynac.. You need to keep close follow ups, doppler scans, all important bld test as suggested by your gynac.. Eat high protein, slightly low salt, daily walking, breathing exercises, proper calcium etc... Talk in detail with your doctor and don't be panic...
