Puffy face after Sleeping but it doesn't stay like that for long. Is that normal?

Hi,
Just a little background...I am currently 35 weeks pregnant and I'm having to go to the hospital every week to get my Blood pressure checked as I have had high BP (I'm back at hospital on the 14th Sept for another Blood Pressure check). So maybe a few weeks or so ago they put me on 200mg Labetalol and that has brought my Blood pressure down to normal (also I've been having extra growth scans as baby is measuring big 90th-95th). My Urine samples have always been normal every week and my bloods have been normal when they have done them.

So I've noticed in the last couple of days I have a puffy face when I wake up (in the morning and after a nap) but it doesn't stay like that for very long. Do you think that's normal? or is that something I should be concerned about. I'm not sure how long it has been doing that as I don't usually look in the mirror when I just wake up in the morning 🤔

thanks

I would ring maternity triage and see if they can check your BP again on Sunday or Monday.
