- I have a question about this episode 64. Bonus Episode: Kelly LeVeque on Off The Record and this Natural Birth Journey. As I plan for my next pregnancy, what can I do to avoid ending up in the hospital again if I was "diagnosed" with pre-eclampsia right around my due date during my first pregnancy, which led to a cascade of interventions and medications that I did not want? I don't do medications, I prefer to stay out of hospitals, and I am 39 but overall would say I am healthy. I want to have my next baby at home, but the midwife is required by law to follow standards. How can I keep my blood pressure down and set myself up to avoid walking the same path?
