[quote=Anonymous]Google the HYPITAT trial. After 38 weeks outcomes are better if you induce for even mild high blood pressure. The key is getting to 38 weeks for fetal development. It sounds like you are downplaying your blood pressures. How do your current BPs relate to prepregnancy? Generally your BP in your third tri should be lower than your baseline prepregnancy. If it is higher than prepregnancy (even if not over 140/90) that could be worrying. Also, any spike in BP is worrying - even if the cause is anxiety or exertion. A high spike when anxious indicates that you are having trouble regulating it. My story: BPs crept up in 3rd tri close (but never over) 140/90. After one really high spike in the midwives office at 39 weeks they sent me to be induced, even though it came down fairly quickly. No protein although they said I started to get some during labor. Delivery was fast and natural, healthy baby! [/quote]
