An article in the March 2003 issue of Prevention Magazine states that women who eat at least five daily servings of vitamin C-rich produce before and during pregnancy may lower their risk of dangerously high blood pressure.  The article was taken from Epidemiology, July 2002.

Julie.blackwood@camc.org (Charleston, WV) is participating in the preeclampsia research at WVU with Ann Dacey and Dr. heather Mertz.  So far things are progressing well in her pregnancy. See RESEARCH for more information

From Stacie
ssabrosky@fnba.com (Eaton Rapids, MI) I'm not able to find information for babies who have survived but are having complications. Do you know if any of your members has a baby that survived but is disabled? Do you have members that are in Michigan?

From Melanie
mgerik@pbpost.com (West Palm Beach, FL) As most of y'all know, I wrote about Emma's dramatic birth and my battle with HELLP syndrome for The Post's feature section on Mother's Day. Here's a link to the story. Although a warning: It will probably make you cry.
