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.
