High Blood Pressure

in High-Risk Pregnancy

Just found out I am pregnant again with baby #3!!!  Super excited but worried at the same time.  Had high blood pressure with both of my previous pregnancies.  Not too bad with the first one but then worse with the 2nd which led to me being induced at 37 weeks.  Seeing if anyone has any suggestions to try and maintain a good blood pressure or am I pretty much going to have the problem again?

    GL.  With my first I had hbp and delivered at 33.5 weeks, this time they started me on Labatelol and it's worked wonders.  My bp has been controlled the whole time, they have had to adjust it periodically, but other than that, no issues.  I would look into medication options.

    Thank you for the information! I will keep this in mind. My first came on her own at 37 weeks and it was borderline high. My second I was induced at 37 weeks with 145/95 blood pressure. They had to give me mercury when I had the 2nd one.
