What is usually considered dangerous high blood pressure during pregnancy?

Question

My readings have been throughout the week:
123/89
121/87
125/88
129/89
120/89
My doctor did prescribe me baby aspirin for my blood pressure being a little elevated at the beginning of pregnancy. 
My bp usually runs 120 over low to mid 80’s.
As of now, I’m not experiencing any abnormal symptoms, so I’m just curious.

Answer

They're good, especially if you've been taking them after you've been busy vs after laying down awhile

Answer

These are okay! You want to watch for where one or both numbers are 140/90 consistently. One high reading is okay. If you had two readings over 4 hours where one or both were 140/90 you should call your provider.

Answer

It honestly depends on your baseline. Those numbers look fine. But it could be considered high for someone that normally runs lower🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

140/90 is when my doctor said it's a problem. 
I'd call the doctor and check with them just bc that bottom number is close if they don't already know your towing the line.
