Kenya Moore is learning firsthand about how serious high-risk pregnancies can be over 40. The ‘Twirl Queen’ took to Instagram to post a photo of  her abnormally, swollen feet.

“I made fun of my swollen feet at @cynthiabailey10 party,” she wrote in the caption. “Next day my tests came back for possible preeclampsia.” According to Mayo Clinic, preeclampsia is a pregnancy complication characterized by high blood pressure and signs of damage to other organs such as the liver and kidneys. If left untreated it could lead to complications for both mommy and the baby. Most women are forced to deliver sooner.

The 47-year-old then went on to describe her rapid, 17 pound weight gain in one week.

“This is not normal,” she said, but adds that the baby is fine after taking more tests.

“Staying positive,” Kenya wrote,  “please go to your visits and tell the doctor of any drastic changes.”

Moore recently hosted a lavish, fairy-tale themed shower for Baby Daly. She still hasn’t revealed whether it’s a boy or girl, but either way it will be Atlanta royalty!

We’re keeping Kenya, her hubby and Baby Daly in our prayers!
