Hi everyone,
I'm 15 weeks pregnant with my 3rd baby. I have never had blood pressure at all not even in late pregnancy with both my boys and one of them was 10lbs 2, it still never rose.
I saw my midwife a few weeks ago and it was raised then, she took it when i first got there it was 140/94 then before i left it was 123/93, she asked me to see gp... but i didn't, i was scared they would hospitalise me... i have an autistic son and thats just not possible.
I went back yesterday for my next appointment. all fine until bp check... first reading was 144/101, second reading was 139/104. midwife freaked out and went off to get a doctor. he took me into a room had me lie on a couch and turned lights off...
he came back after 5-10mins and took it again... 122/85
what does all this mean??
i have to go back today for another reading.
