High-Risk Pregnancy

Intro and Question

Hi, I'm 33 weeks pregnant and was put on bed rest 2 days ago for high blood pressure. I was wondering if others out there have consistently high blood pressure or if goes up and down throughout the day. I have 3 or 4 highs during the day but then for the most part my blood pressure is normal. It doesn't seem to matter if I'm laying or up and around. When I woke up this morning  my bp was 150/100 and I had been asleep laying for 8+ hrs. I have been tested for everything and all my labs are normal. Just wondering if anyone had similar experiences. I am being monitored by my Dr and going to the hospital twice a week for follow up. Thanks for any feedback!

Re: Intro and Question

  • If it is consistently high in the morning I would consider getting a sleep study done. I had issues with that before my sleep apnea was diagnosed.

  • I found first thing in the morning to be my lowest time for BP...  Unless you get freaked out and spike because of an alarm clock?  Other than that, variation during the day is normal.
