The symptoms of preeclampsia are high blood pressure, swelling of hands and face, weight gain, protein in the urine, possible seizures, and other complications. These are risk factors to mother and baby and may result in an early delivery (at 37 weeks, instead of 40 weeks) or mandatory bed rest. Talk to your Doctor for your specific case.

What is preclampsia?
my sisiter had this. pre-eclampsia is a pregnancy-induced condition, which can occur in the second half of pregnancy. It is characterised by high blood pressure, swelling that happens suddenly along with rapid weight gain due to fluid retention, and protein in the urine. Since it reduces the flow of blood to the placenta, pre-eclampsia can be quite dangerous for your unborn baby. It can restrict your baby's growth because not enough oxygen or nutrients get through. If you have any reason to suspect that you might have pre-eclampsia consult your doctor.
