Sudden high blood pressure and swelling..

Nicole

Hey ladies.

This is my third baby & my blood pressure is usually a bit elevated towards the end of pregnancy and I’ve noticed the physical changes that come with high blood pressure so I expected that at my apt today.

My blood pressure was through the roof!! 160/100 (the bottom number has now come down).

No protein in urine which is a good sign

I’ve gained 10lbs in 2 weeks from swelling and water weight- this is a first, I’ve never gained this much or swollen this much so suddenly.

Also have the usual blurred vision, headache, heavy chest, seeing sparks- that comes with higher blood pressure.

Anyone else experiencing the same thing & what is your dr doing/saying about it?

We are waiting on blood work now.
