High Blood Pressure
Well I went to the Dr. yesterday and he said my BP was alittle elevated (150/80)... he said he wasnt too concerned cause my BP since the beginning has seemed to be a normal higher, but he told me to cut back on work and only go in for 4 hours a day and wants to see me next Tuesday to check the BP and do a sono. he said that the heartbeat sounded great and seemed very non chalant about the BP. But of course I cant help but worry.... can anyone make me feel any better?

Re: High Blood Pressure
I was diagnosed with HBP (148/98) and they put me on meds, I am still able to work full time and go about my daily day to day life, my BP is way down now. I guess I will stay on it for the rest of the PG i am hoping it goes down after the baby is born. good lukc if worse comes to worse they can put you on meds that is perfectly safe for pg women

Re: High Blood Pressure
I would say if your doctor was non-chalant about it, I wouldn't worry. No need to stress about things when your doctor isn't concerned, we have enough to worry about!

Re: High Blood Pressure
I am in the same boat. My blood pressure went high 3 weeks ago and they told me i am on bedrest or floating in the pool and that is it. I was told it does not harm the baby as long as you take it easy. They told me to come to the office twice a week one for a sono and the other for a EKG for the baby. How many weeks are you???? Best of luck and if you need some one to talk to feel free to FM me.
