Feeling a bit rubbish after seeing this on my notes today. Worrying about risks. Anyone been in a similar situation or in it currently? I’ve not been told anything extra needs to happen by midwifes as of yet.

@Mc36 I have pregnancy induced hypertension, and I'm on meds 3x a day and go to the hospital to have my BP measured once a week and to do a wee sample as high BP can mean a higher risk for pre-eclampsia. I've also been told baby might be small.

Baby is fine however, 37th percentile. The BP issue is annoying but very managable.
