First ob appt today and high bp reading

So I had preeclampsia with my first starting at 36 weeks. I am now pregnant with my second and very scared of it developing again. I’ve been checking my bp at home and it’s been normal but today before my appt I got a huge spike of anxiety about having my bp taken. Sure enough at the office it was 142/68. My doctor said to keep a log of what it is at home and we’ll check it again next time and if still high we might start labatelol again. I am sure this is from anxiety but now said anxiety is sky high since I know 142 is high. Any advice welcome
