Do you have high blood pressure towards the end of your pregnancy?

Question

If so, what does your doctor say?

Answer

My BP has been higher the last couple of weeks but not considered too high thankfully.

Answer

My blood pressure goes up at the end of pregnancy, but not high enough to be concerned high. My normal BP is below “normal”. So the last few weeks of pregnancy I have a “normal” number, which is high for me. I always make sure I point it out to the doctor, but he never seems concerned.

Answer

I got PIH with my first around 36 weeks, however laying down my BP was normal. So bedrest until 39 and induced.
This time it spiked at 34. At my 36 week appointment she put me on meds, probably because I told her I can't take more than a day or two off a week right now... Plus there's no such thing as bed rest with a toddler. My BP was only 132/85 today. And I've lost 6lb since 34week checkup due to increased water (120-160oz /day) and minimal sodium intake.

Answer

BP was high(150/86) at my 32 week  appointment so my Dr order a blood and urine test. Blood test came back normal but urine protein was high. So now I have to have ultrasounds every week and also Dr appointments every week to closely monitor my bp and baby. My Dr hasn't confirmed I'll be getting induced yet but I know she is considering it. Also I haven't been prescribed any meds.

Answer

My blood pressure was starting to rise at 35 weeks. They put me on bp medicine and started non stress test. He is inducing me next Wednesday. I’ll be 38 weeks Monday. I didn’t have issues with my first pregnancy 7 years ago which surprises me since I gained way more with her and swelled so bad.

Answer

I did with my last and my doctor decided to induce me.

Answer

I had to do blood and urine tests to rule out preeclampsia but when they all came back clear she wasn't worried
