Preeclampsia anyone?
My blood pressure has been a little high with both pregnancies but would always come down after resting or laying down. At my regular appt today it stayed around 134/92 even during my NST laying down for about 30 minutes. They sent me to the lab for blood work and urine testing. I know the urine testing is for protein but what's the blood work for? Does anyone know what maybe the next step would be if it is positive for protein? I didn't think my BP was that extremely high to cause a concern. My doc said she would call tomorrow with the results. I would have just asked her these questions but it was after 5:00 and I had to pick up my other child.
