This happened to me but late in my pregnancy around 37 weeks 6 days, I went in on a Wednesday due to my B/P rising, they did a 24 hour urine test which came back with protein...they tried to induce me but my cervix wouldn't open, since my B/P was up and down the doctor decided to do a c-section since it's a risk for baby and mommy. You may have pre-eclampsia, my c-section was done exactly at 38 weeks...I'm currently 30 weeks pregnant baby #2, I'm being seen by a Specialist and my Obgyn, because of higher risk of pre-eclampsia this time...I will be having a scheduled c-section.

Yes I she did the 24 hour urine test as well. They called today and said it was high the protein levels..  monitor my blood pressure soon as i did it. It was 151/100 then 157/100 and kept going up. My sister dropped me off, doctor sent me to labor and delivery to start some meds to help baby's lungs develope. One my blood pressure reached 190/ 110 they gave me some meds to prevent me having a seizure. my blood pressure went down been down a few hours now. But about 10 minute ago it was 140/78 so they want me to lay on my side.
Have they told you anything else? If it continues it's most likely you will have a c-section, but if meds help hopefully baby stays in a little longer pass 37 weeks:)
