Many things may have caused it at that moment . If a second reading wasn’t that high , I wouldn’t worry too much . I had a high reading last week at my appt but that was because I was in a rush just before . My midwife let me relax for a bit then take it again , it had gone back to normal .

I've had higher readings twice but not in a row. My doctor has me check at home. Random things can cause it. The 1st time I'd been quite upset as a friend had recently died and I was having a lot of feelings plus, I'd ran into the office because I was running a little late.
The 2nd time, again, I rushed because I was a little late.
On purpose, I try and arrive early and make sure I go into my appointments very relaxed.
Blood pressure has been perfect otherwise.

Baby movements

So I’m now officially 22 weeks pregnant with baby number 2 and I’m still yet to feel him move. I had my 20 week scan not last week but the week before and everything seemed fine but have a repeat scan tomorrow due to not getting a proper measurement of his face. I’ve been told I have an anterior placenta too. Should I start getting worried yet ?? With my first baby my placenta was at the back and I felt him move around the 20 week mark. I’m just really paranoid as I have fertility issues as it is and have had miscarriages in the past and I’m classed as a high risk pregnancy with this one as I have strep B and I had gestational hypertension and pre eclampsia with my first baby so I’m on shared care with this pregnancy and I’m also on aspirin too which was prescribed by the hospital to take to prevent with this pregnancy.

Is everyone just done now and ready for baby or not there yet?

If you’ve had enough and ready how far along are you?

I’m 37 weeks and starting to get more uncomfortable but enjoying it generally not at the end of my tether yet but I fear it may be just around the corner according to everyone else? Haha
