I had a doctor appointment on Friday at 2:45. My doctor did not like my blood pressure. It wasn't quite high enough to worry but just higher than my normal BP's had been. So she sent me to L&D to be monitored and rule out preeclampsia.
Spent 2 hours in the hospital and my BP stayed elevated but all labs were normal.
My doctor put me on modified bed rest. Have to call doctor's office first thing Monday to go in and have repeat blood pressure taken. I am starting to freak out that she is going to take blood pressure and its going to be elevated and want to deliver. Have any of you delt with high blood pressure in late 3rd tri? I'm going crazy with all the possible outcomes. Sometimes I hate google!
Anyway...hope you all are having a great weekend! Happy to see we welcomed one GPM baby this weekend!!!!

Thanks for all the replies. Making me feel a bit better. Going in for the repeat BP check at 10:20 today.
@Madeline10L - BP varied over the 2 hours of them taking it but it was in the 140's over 80's. I haven't taken them at home but DH is a CNA so I definitely could stick him on that job. : )
