Answers:

If renal function is preserved (normal creatinine clearance on a 24 hour urine collection), most of these pregnancies will be uncomplicated!. Hypertension should be closely watched!.
The biggest risk is pre-eclampsia,

Women often develop greater than normal edema (swelling) due to the loss of so much protein into the urine and subsequent loss of colloid oncotic pressure in the blood, which leads to leaking from the capillaries!.
