blood pressure

Not sure what's going on. Wondering if any of you have experienced the ... Went to the doctor this morning (I'm 34 weeks btw) and they said my blood pressure was really high (150/90)... They sent me to the hospital Anne monitored my blood pressure for an hour, took a urine sample and blood... Everything came out fine. No protein in urine , blood pressure is stable, blood work was fine.  same thing happened when i was 26 weeks. Its not pre eclampsia. I don't understand whats going on... and I'm afraid that because of my unstable blood pressure, they're gonna make me have a c-section. Anyone else been through something similar?

What do you mean if your placenta moves out of the way? Is that what is causing your blood pressure to spike?

I have had blood pressure spikes. It's usually due to stress/ excitement. My dr says that (if my placenta moves out of the way) I can do a vaginal delivery. I'll just be monitored close. So, yes a vaginal delivery is still totally possible. :)
