Highblood pressure

Ay, alam ko yan, napakastressful talaga! A few of us mums actually experienced the same thing, normal BP the whole pregnancy tapos biglaan lang sa 36 weeks, walang warning signs pa. One of my mum friends had it happen exactly at 36+6, and honestly naging okay lang siya in the end, pre-eclampsia tests came back normal, so it was just gestational hypertension. Ang importante talaga is regular monitoring mula dito, some mums had to go to L&D para ma-monitor closely dahil ang BP nila tumaas daily, pero marami naman na delivered safely right after. Keep an eye din sa postpartum kasi may iba na nag-mention na may lingering high BP pa even after birth, so it's good to track it pa rin. But definitely check with your doctor or specialist mismo para makita nila kung kailangan ng induction or close monitoring na lang, they'll want to look at your labs at weight gain at other signs para ma-assess kung gestational hypertension lang talaga or may other concerns. Kaya mo yan, mare!
