Blood pressure higher in 3rd trimester

Have you guys noticed higher blood pressure in 3rd trimester? I am noticing more 124/80 blood pressures at home compared to my regular 110/70 which was majority of my pregnancy. My OB doesn’t seem concerned and tested my urine etc. everything normal. Am I being over dramatic about worrying about blood pressure increase?

Midwife appointment

Just had my 37 week midwife appointment today and they said that my baby is 3/5 engaged, does that mean baby’s head is basically fully in my pelvis? (Can’t remember what it means from my first baby 😂)

Also my blood pressure was quite high and I had to go to triage, they checked again it was ok but I have to go back again tomorrow to see a doctor in the day assessment unit, what happens if it doesn’t come down?

I’m 37 weeks pregnant now so I have 2 weeks or more before I give birth, as with my first I gave birth at 39 weeks even tho (I was induced) so is there enough time if needed to bring my blood pressure down? As usually I have really good blood pressure so I’ve never experienced this before even before pregnancy so this is all very new to me 😂

Blood pressure

Hi any mommas that have dealt with high BP during pregnancy? What did you do to help it? Did you have any symptoms? I personally don’t unless I’m that anxious and that’s why it keeps reading high but I do try to be as relaxed as possible I was on high BP medication when I was pregnant but I had to stop bc it wasn’t safe for baby. Please help a mama out I’m trying to see if any food or maybe work outs help me. Maintain also be stress free
