Posting here for traffic as no luck on others hope it's okay.

Hi everyone I am just home from my 38 week appointment I am getting Induced in 6 days time due to GD biggish baby and I've been told today that my BP that has always been on the slightly higher side than normal - 125-135/80 was 139/85 (the cut off for high blood pressure is 140/90)again she said it was normal but high normal and I also had a protein trace. Now I'm terrified in suddenly developing pre-eclampsia and somethings gonna happen to me or baby between now and Sunday. She wasn't concerned she said a "trace" is nothing to worry about she done all the usual checks Doppler was fine she said heart rate was perfect. Has anyone else has this? Feel like I'm just gonna be a ball of anxiety from now till Sunday.

Ring the emergency number in your booklet and speak to the hospital and just tell them how you are feeling.

Your hormones will be raging and as you move towards the end of the pregnancy your brain does start to get over loaded with worries and you tend to start to go a like crazy ( I know I did )
