Hi ladies just wondering if any of you have been diagnosed with high BP before? Seems i only get higher bp during pregnancy. i had high BP at times during my last pregnancy (probably after 16 weeks) and we sadly lost him at 20 weeks due to placental failure (cause unknown). At this point my BP was ranging from 130/70-80 to 150/80.
I felt like my heart was racing last week and had been checking my BP at home and at its highest it had been 130-40/80-90+. I went to the maternity day unit who have made me an appt with my consultant but said they wouldnt start me on meds unless my bp went above 150/100. My bps over the last few days have been at the high end of normal at 120-30/around 85.
obviously this worries me in view of our previous loss. The midwife said im obsessing too much and assuming my previous loss was related to the high BP id had at times but it all seems like too much of a coincidence to me.
