I've been worried sick all day about my swelling. Back of my mind says preeclampsia My last doc visit they said my blood pressure was high and I was only like 18 weeks. I'm 21 now. I'm going to check it at Kroger tonight. If its high should I go to the hospital or just wait it out till my next doc visit? (28th)

I'm going to tell you my experience. I had high blood pressure at the end of my first pregnancy. I wasn't treated with medication because was mild. Everything went well with my baby, I had an induction and C-section, but baby was perfect. Don't worry too much and get too stressed about it. A good mental state is a good choice.
Tell your doc about your concerns. They recommended me drink more water and less salt, rest. Some light exercise or activity for pregnancy. Take your prenatals vitamins. Probably next appointment they going to tell you what to do, test your urine and be treated if you need it.
Rest, lying on your left side to take the weight of the baby off your major blood vessels.
Increase prenatal checkups.
Consume less salt
Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day
Change your diet to include more protein

Best luck to you momma. 🙂
Thank you SOOO much for your input. Seriously it helps me feel less jittery about this all 💓 I'm gonna be checking it in a little bit.
No doubt if it's high, go right in. Im at high risk for preeclampsia and I borrowed my mom's BP monitor so I can check in between ob visits. I'm always checking.
Well high blood pressure and swelling is dangerous even not pregnant so I would go in.
I was thinking to. I spoke to a nurse who said it cant be diagnosed really till about 24 weeks.. but I'm just really worried about it.
@petals even if it's early I would still go in for reassurance
My blood pressure was 119/75. No worries here!
