i had high BP with my PG & was on aldomet from around 6 or 7 weeks. they upped the dose a couple of times & it did control the BP pretty well. are you concerned that the higher dose won't manage it? i can't remember doses now, but i think they have room to move if you're on the 250mg twice a day?

i'd like to say rest up & take it easy but with a toddler as well i'm guessing that doesn't happen too often

did your doctor mention any usual lifestyle choices like limiting salt & gentle exercise? other than that, i reckon making sure you let your ob know sooner, rather than later if there are changes/concerns is a good thing - at least that gives you a chance to use medication to see if it can be controlled rather than automatically being induced.

ETA - i managed to avoid being induced due to BP (although was because of GD ) but did have regular monitoring towards the end so they could keep an eye on it.

good luck, hope the aldomet & acupuncture does the trick
