Hypertension is high blood pressure.
Normally there is no protein in urine. If pre-eclampsia becomes severe or is not treated, seizures may occur. When pre-eclampsia is severe it may cause liver, kidney, blood clotting and other problems in the mother. The only cure to pre-eclampsia is delivery of the baby. If high blood pressure occurs only in the last few weeks before the due date, usually the baby is fine.
