Women with preeclampsia? 35 weeks

Nina

I went to my 35 week apt today and my blood pressure is normally about 115/68, today is 135/80, I had +1 protein in my urine and I’ve gained over 5 lbs this week. I had a new dr and he told me that my bp is normal but I told him not for me. He looked at my chart and said oh okay that’s a little higher. He sent me for blood work and then is making me carry around a jug all day to pee in.

Does everyone have to do this around 35 weeks? Or is he trying not to freak me out? I am a little freaked out honestly.
