[quote=Anonymous]Latest ACOG recommendations are for induction at 37 weeks for gestational hypertension or preeclampsia. Uncomplicated chronic hypertension can go longer. The reference is ACOG's "Hypertension in Pregnancy" document which is about 100 pages but the first 10 or so are the executive summary. This is a change from prior recommendations. As an OB, to me it sounds like your OB is doing the right thing especially when you describe your BPs being as high as 180s systolic - that is not normal. Best of luck to you and your baby![/quote]
