Gestational Hypertension

Amanda

So far, zero issues this pregnancy. Last week had a cold, and BP crept up (usually like 105/60 or about). Was up to 128/78, so no big deal, maybe because I was sick.... Well the past few days I have had just a moderate, nagging headache. Tylenol did not help. So at work I had one of the other nurses take my BP and 140/90! Re tested a bit later, still 130/90. Called my MD and went in. Was 130/94 sitting up. They had me lay down on my left side and retook it and it did come down. Went for some labs and now have to monitor my BP a few times a day. I am 34 weeks today. Anyone else with experience with this?
