  • i've had cronic hypertension for about 2 1/2 years now i had to dubble my medication i was on at around 4 months pregnant because my blood pressure was sky rocketing to dangerous levels. 180/110 i think was the worst. it did help but i continued to have problems and had to quit my job at 6 months, witch was very physical. i'm 33 weeks now and the last month my bp has been great. expect alot of appointments though i'm haveing two a week untill i deliver with a sono every week to cheak on growth.

  • I've had HBP for about a year and a half. I was put on bedrest at 16 weeks because when I stand up my blood pressure goes up. I'm on meds 3X a day and see a high risk doc every 3 weeks and my regular OB every two weeks. I have a BPP and NST once a week (this only started last week). I thought that seemed excessive, but whatever they tell me, I follow! Good luck, and the best thing is to just try not to worry about it!
