Headaches and high blood pressure

Danielle
So I'm 37 weeks and two days today. My bp has been creeping up over the last week or soo. Increasing swelling and headaches. Yesterday they sent me to labor and delivery because it spiked to 167/111. Blood work came back good and they got my bp to come down after laying on my left side. They sent me home on bed rest until my follow up appt with my doctor today since she wasn't the one on call. Just looking for similar stories/ opinions as to what they will do from here? Induce? Keep me on bed rest? Just don't know of the baby is healthier inside or outside at this point. Obviously I will ask my doctor all of this when I go in just wondering your experiences / opinions! Thanks! 💚
