Can stress make blood pressure rise?

I’m currently 21 weeks and 3 days pregnant and today my blood pressure has been on the higher side. My last pregnancy I had high blood pressure two weeks before my due date so I was induced. I know there could be a chance for preeclampsia for me, I’ve been trying all I can to not get this again, but lately I’ve been having a lot of problems with my MIL and we’re in the process of moving. Today I remembered we have to drop our toddler off at my MIL’s this Thursday for my ultrasound. I’m not looking forward to that, this is the first time in almost two years she’s gotten to babysit her. Can stress do this to your blood pressure? I’m taking baby aspirin everyday, but does anyone else have tips for me?
