looking for advice on OB
My OB has marked me high risk since I was 11 weeks due to high blood pressure. I don't have high bp outside of pregnancy. It only happens when pregnant. At my 17 week appt, I had some protein in my urine to which the dr said its ok and they will do a total protein count at my next appt. My most recent appt was Monday and I was 21w5d. The OB that O saw said it was no big deal and should be expected since I have high bp. She also did not do the total protein test. The only thing she said is for me to monitor my bp morning, afternoon amd night and that if I notice it going high mid day to call her and she will add a 3rd dose of meds. I feel like my concerns are being brushed off as no big deal. To make matters worse, I was feeling terrible yesterday afternoon. My stomach was crampy, I had a headache that would not quit, felt dizzy and when I checked my bp ot was 148/100. Of course I took my meds shortly thereafter and i started to feel better but Im really worried at this point. Never in my previous pregnancies have I even had a trace of protein in my urine and now Im told its "no big deal". Its too late to switch practices. What advice do you all have?
