My name is Wendy Gross. I am 30 and live in Florida, USA with my husband Lonnie (31), and daughter - Stephanie Danielle, 2 years old.

Developed pre-eclampsia (discovered) at regular dr's appointment 4/16/98. Put on strict bed rest until induced on 5/13/98 - had Stephanie on 5/15/98 - 2 weeks to the day early.

I like reading, cross stitching and scrapbooking. Hope to try to conceive when Stephanie is about 4 or 5; of course I will just be that much older myself and the prospect of a recurrence terrifies me.
