HELLP
Is difficult to get very accurate numbers on the risk of recurrence because it's not common.
The studies show that your risk of getting:
-recurrent HELP is 2-6%
-preeclampsia in next pregnancy: 20% (if you curving have normal blood pressure).
- If you currently have elevated blood pressure, your chance of hair preeclampsia is 75%
There is no evidence that any therapy will prevent this from happening again, although studies are looking into aspirin therapy.

As a rule HELLP is classified as a variation of severe preeclampsia and your risk for developing that is around 25% in subsequent pregnancies. HELLP is much more rare but you are still at increased risk, due to your previous history. The good news is you made it to 37 weeks thus you probably will be fine to term.
