Preeclampsia ?

Question

bp has been high since 7:00 this morning along with a migraine that has been there since the second I opened my eyes. I’ve napped, had caffeine, drank tons of water & have taken my tylonal and nothing is helping 😭
Dr said she doesn’t think I need to go in right now even though my whole pregnancy I’ve had PERFECT blood pressure (literally always 120/80 or lower every appointment) frustrating because I know they say preeclampsia can come on fast and I don’t want anything bad to happen. 
I’m 35+4 today.

Answer

Get you some grapefruit. It helps

Answer

For my my BP went up during pregnancy and I was told through l and d not to worry unless I went higher than 145/95. My non pregnant BP is 120/80 average too.  It is normal for your BP to raise when pregnant because of the extra fluid 
However!! We are different people and if you are feeling generally unwell and/or concerned it’s ALWAYS better to go in and get a quick assessment done

Answer

I would go in if you’re worried. I find it odd they didn’t send you. I had high blood pressure once and they sent me straight to L&D lol. I was fine (I knew mine was anxiety) but still glad I got checked.

Answer

You won’t know until you go in to get checked, it’s always better to be safe than sorry. They’ll be able to monitor you BP and decide if you need to stay or you can monitor at home.
