Bp

Today I went to doc visit and baby is doing great. Blood pressure was 150 over 60. She really took it and was 140 over 60. What BP is too high.

Re: Bp

  • I've had Preclampsia both previous pregnancies. 140/90 is when it gets serious and they start watching for Preclampsia

  • Did you ask your doctor what number they start getting concerned at? That would be a great place to start.

  • 120/60 is normal. 140 is getting pretty high, they should definitely double check that and monitor closely.
  • From a medical standpoint, and something doctors tend to overlook, is everyone has a different "normal." For example, my bp is normally about 110/56 and if it gets up to 130/70 (would be considered normal for most) I start not feeling right. If that is considered high for you, I would definitely let the dr know. With dd I ended up being induced at 37 weeks for preeclampsia and my bp was 144/88
  • @dtaded13 that is such a great point. I'm normally 98/60. After DD was born it was like 115-120/70 and I felt awful
