Ohh yeahhhhh. I forgot to mention the second pregnancy.

 My second and last pregnancy I also had the high blood pressure. I was on bedrest from the first trimester til the end.  However, part of the cause of the high blood pressure the second time.... the steroids I was taking just in case the baby was a CAH girl! For me... steroids are not a good option.  Yes it is good for the girl baby just in case.... but NOT when it raises the BP so much that miscarriage is a big threat. I would take an "ambigous genitalia"  baby over no baby anyday!!    Second pregnancy made it to full term and is a carrier only to the CAH.
