Are you using an electric/automatic cuff or manual? I got scattered readings the other day with my dad's automatic cuff. My dr said that it may just be the cuff is bad, but if I was truly concerned to go to L&D. I'd call your dr. If he has an after hours line, of course. If not, then call L&D. Hope you can get everything figured out and fixed. 😊

the cuffs misread all the time. I'd call L&D see what they tell you unless there's someone that can manually take you're blood pressure for you.

Anything over 140/90, Id suggest that you go ahead and call your ob. I've been concerned about mine as well. But your in hypertension so the dr will probably ask that you go get monitored in l&d.
