I was diagnosed with gestational hypertension at 30 weeks with bps in the 130s/90s. All labs looked ok and after that my bp stayed pretty much in the 120s/70s with a few small fluctuations. Now at 34 weeks my diastolic has been consistently in the high 80s with a reading in the 90s here and there. Anyone else have a similar situation? Did your stop going up or did it continue to get worse?

Those with gestational hypertension, how much does your bp fluctuate? I was diagnosed based off of 2 readings in the 130’s over 90’s at separate appointments. Was sent to l&d and bp went back to normal (110’s over 60-70’s) and all labs good. Been monitoring at home and over the last 2 weeks I’ve only gotten one reading in the 130’s and 3 in the 90’s. A handful in the 120’s over 80’s but most are pretty normal for me at 110’s over 70’s. Has this been the pattern for anyone else? How did your dr address it?
