Women's experiences of having had, and recovered from, eclampsia at a tertiary hospital in Tanzania.

CONCLUSION: Experiencing eclampsia is painful and gives a sense of bodily disconnectedness. It involves worrisome separation from the newborn, not being adequately informed and concerns over future health. More holistic care would benefit eclamptic women and their newborns.
