I'll be 37 weeks any my blood pressure keeps going up it was 136/82 at the hospital and today when i checked it at home it is 145/92 the hospital told me to have it checked at the doctor  tomorrow, anyone else had this happened to them ? If so what did the doctor do?

I had a doc appointment yesterday and my bp was high so they sent me to hospital for 24 hrs and have diagnosed me with preeclampsia...she informed me that I am being induced tomorrow night and I will be 37 weeks this friday. I'm super nervous.

Yea it is weird what's even worst is that it didn't start until i was 36 weeks

I didn't really start having problems with bp until having baby's but when I'm not pregnant its not high most pregnancys are like that too which is weird

So you didn't show any signs until this late in your pregnancy

[lovingmy32014]

An taking labetalol twice a day

Same here but I've went full term with my kids third baby

Thank you i never showed any signs of preeclampsia until a few days ago so its scary!

This is my second pregnancy with preeclamplsia. Both times they've used labetalol and nifedipine to manage my bp for as long as possible to get baby closer to full term. The dr might put you on meds and bedrest ot as you are nearly 37wks he might discuss inducing you a little early. Wishing you and bub lots of luck!
