Today I had my 28 week appointment where my ob told me my blood pressure was high and sent me to L&D, they did a NST and monitored my blood pressure for about 3 hours due to possible pre eclampsia, I was dismissed but told to come back weekly for the same routine, any other moms previously experienced this?

I haven't but my blood pressure is always high at the doctor (even pre-pregnancy).. But when I monitor at home, it's perfect. I just keep track on an app so when the doctor says something, I show them. What was your BP?

I did with my first pregnancy! Had NSTs twice a week for the last 10 weeks and ended up with preeclampsia at 32 weeks

@Jaesch15,

Did they induce labor earlier with preeclampsia/how did they treat you?

@aalemr,

I did get induced at 37 weeks but it was a combination of preeclampsia and babys heart rate dropping really low! If his heart rate had been fine, I'm really not sure what would've happened!

I have high blood pressure too. My doctor put me on medicine and I am monitoring it at home. I am high at home too.

My doctor is having me mid April start getting two ultrasounds a week plus more DR appointments.

She already talked about early induction given how high my bp is already. I’m definitely scared but I trust my doctor.

In April 2025 BabiesOB/MFM warsMarch 15, 2025 | by skorn561About a month ago I tried to do one NST at my ob instead of my MFM because my MFM is very far from my house. which turned into this huge ordeal and being falsely diagnosed with preeclampsia because I was sent to labor and delivery “for a bpp”...Latest:4daysago| skorn561 3

In March 2025 BabiesInduction update…February 07, 2025 | by caitandveeSo, I’ve known from the beginning that best case scenario, I would be induced at 39 weeks due to my age (38). Didn’t love it, but I’ve accepted it as the safest route for baby. BUT… my BP has been sneaking up, as well as swelling in my feet,...Latest:2monthsago| AysiaStar 61
