High blood pressure

I had my 24 week midwife appointment this week and my blood pressure was slightly high, not over the threshold of when they say to go into triage but close to, I’ve been told to test everyday to keep an eye on it, anyone else had this at this stage?

Yeah I’ve had that. I take my bp every other day now but mines got better. For me I think it was stress and anxiety about going to appointments. But monitoring it is just a precaution so they can get you help if you need it

@Isobel yeah when I measured it at home it had gone down. They told me if it goes above 90 to call triage, is that the same advice you got?

@Isobel that’s really helpful thank you!!

On Monday mine was 160/83 it came down to 140/73 but I suffer with white coat syndrome and I have hyper outside of pregnancy . I’ve been told of it goes to 150/100 I have to go in straight away
