I had high blood pressure in my 8 week appointment but it was lower at my 12 week. Been getting the absolute worst headaches every morning waking me up at 1am or so. I don't have much faith in the care system though so I'm not putting myself through the same stress as the last few times I tried to get help. If it becomes unmanageable I'll contact my midwife but for now, some paracetamol usually sorts it. Do tell your midwife if you want help though
@Jessica yeah they’re sending me today to get it checked over again, just hoping it’s nothing to serious such a constant worry 🤦🏼♀️ x
@Annie have you ever had high blood pressure before ? It’s just such a worry when I Google things I make my self 10x worse, and I’m the same the head aches are horrific mostly of a night. Going again today to get it checked over! Hope your feeling better soon x
With my first I had high blood pressure from the start. We now know it was anxiety induced as when I check it at home it’s totally normal!! It’s raised every time I go for any type of appointment so has been put down to white coat syndrome
Please get this checked and get on medication if needed and weekly BP checks or use a monitor at home. I had a lot of complications during birth due to my blood pressure not being medicated during pregnancy Could be white coat, worry with scans etc but you don’t want to risk it x
Did you tell them that you’ve been getting headaches too?
