I just came from my doctors appointment and the doctor strongly recommended that I be induced next week due to high pressure. My blood pressure has been getting increasingly higher over the past month. Today it was 138/98 and last week it was 142/92. These don't seem terribly high to me but doctor said since I'm full term (I'll be 39 weeks Wednesday 27th ) that it's best to go ahead and deliver.
@autumnarrival17, thanks 🙏 sending you prayers too!
My bp keeps going high then crashing low - it is extra stress on the baby anything over 140/90 is high and anything over 160 is severe- just to give a range. I have to monitor at home as well now- sending you prayers xoxo ❤️
‼️QUESTION‼️
I have been monitoring my blood pressure but I was wondering what is "too high" for the top number and "too high" for the bottom number also what's a good heart rate average
Is it just my docs?
Idk why, but every time I go to the doctor they just check my blood pressure, weight, urine, baby's heartbeat, and send me on my way!
This is my first pregnancy with a lot of complications. I have problems with my blood pressure and severe pains. I have a doctor appointment in the morning and my foot is super swollen to the point it looks like it's going to bust. I don't know what they usually do with feet that look like it's bout to bust and high blood pressure together. I will be 34wks and 4days tomorrow I really don't won't him to come early but I also don't won't to put him in danger either.

So worried this is not normal for me at all my blood pressure is high it’s normally low and my heart rate is low and it’s normally high.
I just need to rant! my blood pressure has been great my whole pregnancy my weight is doing good, but I calledy doctor and spoke to a nurse because my cramping I've been having at night and she says no I need to come in that's is really bad so I went in my blood pressure was high because I was sitting here freaking out and shaking and in the mean time cramping when I got there and I get to see the doctor and he goes ur blood pressure was high so now I'm having to do a 24 hr urine sample freaking...
I was induced with my first because of high bp. They just didn't want to risk anything. At least you know when it'll happen!
