Why do women with preeclampsia have nausea and abdominal pain?
3 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
Preeclampsia signs: Nausea and vomiting scare general symptoms of preeclampsia which is causing pressure buildup in the venous system, resulting in high blood pressure and potential renal failure.

Liver failure: Sometimes abnormal placentas begin to breakdown at 20wks, leading to exposure of mom to some of dad's placental genes and lead to an "allergic" reaction where the vessels spasm and platelets are drawn away (thrombocytopenia). The spasm causes high BP, HA, liver dysfunction, vision changes, and protein in the urine; leads to maternal seizure, decreased baby growth, and sometimes placental abruption
