Blood pressure help?!!

Hiya!

Anyone know the normal blood pressure during pregnancy?

Yesterday my blood pressure was 131/69, the midwife wasn't concerned although my blood pressure is usually 100/80. However, I've had a banging headache all day?? Should I be worried and go get checked? I'm next seeing the midwife on Thursday so don't know whether to wait until then. Smile

A “normal” blood pressure is 120/80. 131/69 isn’t bad at all (I had pre eclampsia in my pregnancy and this would have been a good one!) but worth keeping an eye on. Re the headache take paracetamol and if it doesn’t go away call triage for advice.

I’m experiencing the same thing now, similar blood pressure reading and chronic headache for 2 days. What was the outcome for you?
