Very disappointed

I went to the dr today and because my bp went up again and I'm so swollen, I dont get to attend my family reunion. My dr said no in every way possible. I was so looking forward to it, and being able to relax for a weekend.

Yes that is why I was curious because I've been 90/60 even 80s/50s all along until the past 6 wks it keeps rising. My office readings haven't passed 130s/80s but I have seen higher readings at home at times and my doctor isn't even worrying unless it gets to 140/90 at my visit.. but I think this is ridiculous. No way my blood pressure should have jumped like that in 6 wks

My bp was 130/92 yesterday which doesn't seem bad. But my whole pregnancy its been 90 something over 50 something. Plus babys heart rate went from high 140s to 124.

Sorry to hear this, I can't imagine how frustrated you must be. Just remember your doctor is only looking out for yours and your baby's health. Prayers it gets understand control soon.

Curious what was your blood pressure? Mine keeps rising and if it does again they might finally take it serious I hope. But of course I wish it would stop going up instead :(
