Blood Pressure

Just interested in what everyones BP was at certain times during pregnancy.
I'm at 26 weeks and it has gone from 100/60 to 126/80 which I know is still normal. But still an increase  
I am already on procardia for irritable uterus.

During pregnancy I think they go by the old school numbers so if it don't go higher than I think 140/80 then they probably won't do anything at the end mine did go up about there but if they suspect anything they will do test for precaution.

My visit 2 weeks ago my blood pressure was about 126/80 and then last week was 110/72. So far no protein in my urine, but your BP can depend on your mood. My BP is always much lower at appointments where I feel more relaxed. I went for an allergy test during my first trimester and they took my BP and it was 136/80 and I was freaking out and went the next day to see my doctor, but it was only high because I was late for the appointment so I was running and stressing.  Regular exercise such as walking can help keep your blood pressure in check.
