I'm due and visited to check if my waters had broken as I was unsure.
(Before I continue, i'll add that in my first pregnancy I had very high blood pressure, it was pre-eclampsia at 35/36 weeks and I was induced at 37. This time round I've been on medication, had a consultant and extra scans to check baby's growth. Luckily, all has been well..)
A trainee midwife, very young (19) and very unprofessional took my bp. It was 140/80 or 86. I'm not sure. She paused for a moment and told me to breathe deeply, made a comment about my nails and went away. She failed to mention that my bp was high.
I didn't realise as I have always been unsure of the numbers, thought i'd look it up just now on NHS out of curiosity as I weren't sure and it says it's high?!
Should I be concerned? Should I call triage back and explain this to them?
