Usually the high blood pressure, protein in the urine, and other effects of toxemia go away completely within six weeks after delivery. Sometimes the high blood pressure will get worse in the first several days after delivery (Board 2011).
A woman with a history of preeclampsia is at risk for the condition again during future pregnancies. It is not as severe in later pregnancies (Narasimha 2011).
Women who have high blood pressure problems during more than one pregnancy have an increased risk for high blood pressure when they get older (Jayachandran 2009).
Death of the mother due to preeclampsia is rare in the U.S. The infant's risk of death depends on the severity of the Toxemia and how prematurely the baby is born.
Seven out of every 100 pregnant women will develop toxemia (Essortment 2011).
Nearly 350,000 pregnancies are affected by toxemia (Craver 2008).
Toxemia doesn't just occur in babies, it occurs in animals too.
