A ‘watch and wait’ policy is recommended in the UK for women diagnosed with late pre-eclampsia (between 34 and 37 weeks of pregnancy) The UK guidelines state that women should be monitored until 37 weeks, and only then should the baby be delivered (if no other problems arise). A recent study in the UK involved 901 women. It compared this policy with planned earlier delivery (started within 48 hours of pre-eclampsia diagnosis). It found that earlier delivery was better for mothers, and did not harm babies. However, the babies were more likely to be admitted to the neonatal unit.
