Ok here's today's discussion question for all you mothers out there. Did you ever have toxemia(preeclampsia) when you were pregnant? If you did have you thought about having anymore children or did you decide that this would be the only pregnancy?
Just wondering because out of my five pregnancies I only ended up with toxemia twice my third and last pregnancy.

I never had toxemia...but my aunt did. and she chose to have another child too. She had toxemia both times and I never heard her complain.
As far as I am concerned, I wouldn't have let it bother me either. It would be just another thing that I would have to go through. I'd have as many kids as I could (toxemia or no toxemia).

Thank you for your response. Out of five of my pregnancies I had toxemia twice. The last pregnancy the toxemia was so bad they took my daughter over a month early she was due on dec 23-28 and they decided to induce me on november 17th. That was becasue my body was starting to poison itself and you know what I would do it all over agian for her. She is the light of my life. I have always been one that I will go as far as I can. But after my fifth I'm done .. Not because I'm afriad of the toxemia I just think five is enough. Agian thank you for your response you have a happy holiday..
