Had my 40 + week mw appointment today. Blood pressure is higher then normal 120/80. She checked it at the end of the appointment and it was 130/80 plus I have a little headache and my face feels really hot... I don't know if I have a temp or not it's just come over me since i got home. Mw said if I have a headache tomorrow I have to call the hospital if not I have to see her to get blood pressure checked again. Anyone had this before? I'm a little worried. xxx but on plus side if baby decides not to cone over weekend I'm getting a sweep done next Wednesday! Xx
 
I thought 120/80 - 140/80 was bang on normal? Hope you manage to get rid of your headache, find drinking plenty of water, and lying down in a dark room with the window open for fresh air helps x

Mw said it's high for me as I've always been below that but she was concerned.

Oh i don't know, its just that I am booked it for a sweep next tues when ill be 40 + 2 and would have thought that you would have been offered one seen as you are 40 + 1. it seems strange how everywhere does things differently x
 
Yeah my mw was said they will only do them once I hit 41 weeks. It is strange how everywhere is different!!! Should be all the same lol x
 
Oh how silly. Well hopefully LO gets moving before then for you x
