38 week appointment - high blood pressure

sira26

Did anyone's blood pressure go up towards the end? Mine is up to 135/80 and my dr. is having me do weekly NSTs for the last couple of weeks. She is not super concerned since my urine and blood test for pree came back just fine but being cautious.

 Anyone else have experience with this?

My bp has been high this last week.  130/90 and 140/100.  They retook it and got 127/70 so since everything else looked good, they just sent me on my way with waring signs to look for for.

Mine started going up at week 34, I stopped working at week 38 because of it and low and behold, it went down (But was still borderline high and I was induced 4 days after my due date)

Same for me so we will see how it goes from here

Mine went up with DS at around 35 weeks. I went in to be induced at 39 weeks but was already in labor when they checked me in.  Just watch out for swelling, blurred vision, anything different.  Good luck!

Mine went up at my 34 and my 36 week apts.  Since I normally had 100/58ish, they weren't concerned yet. Up for me was still I guess not too high. (although I'm concerned and swelling like crazy)

the same thing happened to me at 37 weeks. I had the same weekly appointments and ended up getting induced 2 days early because my BP was 140/98.

I was diagnosed with pre-e at week 34.  I had a scheduled c-section last week at 37 weeks.  They did NSTs and AFI 2 times a week during that waiting time.
