Another question from me: blood pressure

[Ladylove]

Today my blood pressure measured 130/67. This is higher than normal with my measurements rarely over 119 usually a little less. I had no protein in my urine and I feel fine but is this ok for late pregnancy?

They worry more if the bottom number gets high.

Usually they only worry once it starts creeping past 25points higher than your regular systolic (top number) or 15 more than the diastolic (bottom number) or hits the magic number of 140/90.

Was it hot there today? Were you rushing? Had you had enough to drink? Were you a bit stressed? Lots of things can put it up a little bit.

Super hot here today! And I always get a bit nervous before my appointments. My last reading was 112/66 but the two before that we're 119/58 and 117/65. My very first reading at 8 weeks along was 120/73.

Mine got to 140/90 and then my gp sent me to hossy cuz normally im 110/60. Due to family history of pe and proteins in urine as well as swelling in fingers n feet, I was induced at 39weeks and even then it was only mild pe and they weren't too worried. I think they had a slow week for inductions and csections. Doc said pretty much hed rather no risk than low risk. So I would.say u are fine.
