blood pressure rise

hi, just wanted some advice, my blood pressure all the way through has been 110\60, I'm 34+5 and it's gone up to 134\83. thought a rise in blood pressure was an indicator of problems so slightly concerned especially as they've referred me for a growth scan, , althoughbloods, sugar and bump size all normal. They said it was just to check but concerned. anyone had the same.

Thanks

mines has gone up too think its actually around same as urs but thankfully its still in normal ranges so try not to worry. drink plenty of fluids and rest as much as u can. if theres any accompanying swelling/headaches or visual disturbances then seek medical advice asap.

I had this too at my last appointment - similar before and after readings as yours. I actually have access to a digital monitor so checked mine a few times myself and it was back to normal. I think as pregnancy progresses I've been getting a bit anxious maybe and that causes it. Saying that I know that the digital monitors are not as accurate and if in doubt you should see the midwife.
