My last bp was 144/84...before that was 120/70. This is a first for me, but is that considered too high??

Question

Answer

Did they take it right after walking you into the exam room? I make them wait until they've asked all the other questions and I've had a chance to catch my breath. Also, don't drink caffeine before an appt. that will do it too.

Answer

I consistently have borderline high BP when pregnant, I was doing great with it being in the 118's, then one time they were busy and called me back and instantly took bp and it was around 126. 😑 Dang ob had me do a 24hr urine collection because it was high.... umm... Its high cuz she didnt let this fat preggo lady chill before pumping up my arm! Haha 
I always eat very smart before going to appointments, nothing fatty or too sugary. No caffeine either.
