HELLP Syndrome

I had HELLP syndrome with my first baby. Anyone out there has had another baby after having HELLP? I am very nervous to have another child. But I want another one very badly.

I had HELLP syndrome with my first too. I am very anxious and ended up getting acute kidney failure. This has been resolved except that I am spilling protein in my urine from then. My nephrologist does not want me to have a baby any time soon. I get labs done every 6 months to check up on everything. My blood pressure and weight are perfect. I am also nervous to have another baby. I am going to another OB in December and I am going to ask more questions about whether I can have another baby. Do you take fish oil? I have heard that if you take fish oil it helps reducing the relapse of HELLP again. But I amless likely to have it again as odds are in my favor.
