If you have protein in your urine while 37 weeks pregnant will you deliver soon?

Protein leaks from the kidney more easily during pregnancy. A small amount (trace) is usually not serious, but if larger amounts are excreted, it can be a precursor to toxemia or pre-eclampsia, which is a serious condition that normally occurs in the last trimester. Toxemia is harmful to both baby and Mom. It is characterized by protein in urine, high blood pressure, swelling, and can lead to seizures if untreated. It most often occurs in first pregnancies, but can occur in any. Checking for protein is one reason your doctor asks for a urine specimen at each prenatal visit. If toxemia develops, it is treated primarily with bedrest, sometimes medications to control blood pressure or prevent seizures, and early delivery may be required for the safety of baby and mother.

∙ 14y agothis could mean that you have a minor kidney infection OR could simply just be that you kidneys are working harder at this moment in time, the midwife will do the test again in your next visit, dont hesitate to ask her if you are worried about anything or are unsure of what anything means, im sure she will be happy to explain anything to you :)

How many weeks are you pregnant after your conceived?
Most women deliver between 37-40 weeks after conception
Can you test urine three weeks old for pregnancy?
That urine would be too young to get pregnant. Don't bother testing it.
Does it take exactly nine months for a woman to give birth after she's gotten pregnant?
No. The pregnancy calendar is crazy!! A woman is actually two weeks pregnant when she actually has sex to conceive. So by the time she finds out she is pregnant (2 weeks later) she is actually four weeks pregnant technically. Most women will deliver around 40 weeks of pregnancy (which if you figure up is about 10 months!). Some women will deliver earlier while others will deliver later. If a woman goes too much past the due date, then the doctor will induce her.
38 weeks pregnant with burning urine?
You might have an infection. You need to speak to your doctor ASAP
You are 33 weeks pregnant can you deliever?
Yes you can deliver at 33 weeks, I had my son at 8 weeks and 1 day early, although I had to have a c-section, I did have the option of a natural birth. So yes you can deliver either way. Congrats on making it that far though!!
My doctor told me I have a mild bladder infection I am 10 weeks pregnant?
Cystitis is not terribly uncommon in pregnant women. Also, it is common practice to treat bacteria in the urine even if you do not feel like you have a UTI, because there is a much higher morbidity associated with this condition than in non-pregnant women. Your doctor will more than likely check your urine every time you come in to the office for this reason, and to check to make sure you do not have glucose or protein in your urine, which can mean you have gestational diabetes or are pre-eclamptic.
How Hi my wife she is pregnant and only 4 weeks left to deliver. So she can be able to take eno?

Blood and Protein in Urine 27 weeks pregnant?
The Story is: Im 27 weeks pregnant and have had +4 blood in my urine since week 6. At week 23 i had +1 protein. The blood has now gone but i still have +1 protein. I have had kidney function tests, liver enzme tests and all have come back normal. My blood pressure has been high at times too, mainly when at hospital, it always seems to be more or less normal at GP surgery, my highest reading was 174/86 today it was 125/58. The protein has remained +1 never any higher, i go hospital 3 times a week for checks, and they so far dont seem concerned, Anyone else been in this situation?
How many days are you pregnant for?
You are pregnant for approximately 280 days. That is if you go the full 40 weeks (9 months) and if you count from your last period. Most women don't have there baby on their due date (in fact most first-time moms deliver at 41 weeks if not induced) Obviously you aren't pregnant for the first 14 days or so (until ovulation) and most women don't know they are pregnant for another 14 days after that. So really it's less time but 280 days/40 weeks/ 9 months is how long you are pregnant.
Does hcg show up on urine at 4 and a half month pregnant?
