32 weeks, gestational hypertension

Has anyone else been diagnosed with gestational hypertension this early in pregnancy? My last appointment My BP was 142/79, I was given the steroid shots for babies lungs and am thankful it has not turned into preeclampsia so far. Other than relaxing more, are there tips/tricks to help ward of pre e for as long as possible. Really want to get this baby to 36-37 weeks and the doctor didn’t sound to optimistic that we would get that far. Anyone relate to any of this or have success stories?
