I have high blood pressure so suspected preeclampsia been given tablets try reduce it. Having a warm bath will help lower it if your concerned and try not.to stress. Im 35 weeks n I believe theu trying keep me going till 37 but could go in by Thursday if don't improve

When I was having blood pressure issues my doctor said to only be concerned if its 150/100 after resting for 5-10 minutes. And if its that high to call labour ward and let them know

okayy... i juss did it again nd it said 131/89.... nd yea im doin it wit my left arm

Ur fine.  If it is consistently like that or higher it will be concerning.  If the bottom number becomes higher than 100 sit down an relax for 15-20 min and retest. An make sure u are testing on ur left arm.   And tbh it's not that high.   Ur bp will raise with pregnancy because u are pregnant and ur blood flow is more causing the pressure to elevate.  No big deal

Take it a couple more times over the next couple hours. Lots of things can cause it to go up pain, worry, rushing around. As long as it's not consistently high over a period of time you're ok. I was hurrying one day to the doctor & I had an ear ache mine was high when I got there but by time I left it was normal.

I would be more worried about ur heart rate! That is way high! If I was u I would call ur doc and see what they say! Better safe then sorry! I know a grl that hers was up like that and she lost her baby because of it! I wouldn't wait!

Healthy BP is supposed to be under 120/80.
