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?

I’ve been having high bps and they vary. I’m told anything 140/100 is worrisome. I just need it to hang in there till our c-section on 2/3!

More pressure, more blood volume, it's not uncommon to get higher in the end. (Says me while I sit in the hospital for induction because of exactly that)

Mine was mid 120s/80 most of my pregnancy (116/70 pre pregnancy) and it’s been 135/90 and they arent worried I am tho 😅

lucky. I just want them to give me some BP meds and send me home

Young mum

Hi guys,

I’m just wondering if there’s any other young parents that are getting further into their pregnancy and like, genuinely just clocking that I’m gonna be responsible for a baby and I don’t know everything their is to know about baby’s I feel like I’m gonna be so useless and accidently be the worst mum in the world 🫣

Does anyone else feel like this? Or felt like this? I’m 19 and genuinely have so much anxiety about this now I’m 20 weeks lol

So annoyed, dog jumped on me :( now I’m anxious

I have a big dog and she NEVER jumps.. today I came home and my mum was with me visiting and my dog must have just got over whelmed and she jumped and ended up scratching my lower back,

with that I’ve bent backwards almost and stretched my lower belly and it didn’t hurt as such just felt like tha shock ligament pain but ofc I haven’t actually bent that far since being pregnant and now I just feel anxious really and just need some reassurance. It only happened about 15 mins ago and I have felt baby a little since

But why is there always something to worry about!😭

Anemia

So my results from the glucose test were good (that’s positive) but It looks like I have anemia. Someone in the same situation? Waiting to see what my doctor says, but any tips would be appreciated.
