Post Your Blood Pressure


I had an ante-natal appointment today and once again, my BP was really high I don't know whats going on with my body but it's been high for a while now, then it dropped the last time I had it taken at the hospital, then today it's gone the highest its ever been (140/93) Plus my ankles are really really swollen now too!!

I just wondered how common higher BP is for the ladies in the later stages of pregnancy..

If you don't mind, would you post what your BP was at your last appointment, just so I can get an idea of how mine compares coz I have no idea..

On a positive. His head is nearly fully engaged now, she could only feel his neck, so thats a bonus!!

Not my last one, but the one before (32+2) my blood pressure was really high. At the beginnng of the appointment it was 142/92 and at the end it was 158/88. It was back down to 120/70ish 2 weeks later (34+2).
