Bought a BP machine for home and now im checking it ten times a day lol. The readings keep changing slightly so i dont know what number is okay and what should worry me. Currently in my 2nd trimester.
I kept a small BP monitor at home on my doctors advice and checked sometimes. Around 120/80 is the general normal. But please dont self diagnose, let the doctor read the numbers.
I had high BP issues so I take this seriously. If your readings are high with headache, swelling or blurry vision, call your gynac right away. Normal is around 120/80 but get monitored regularly.
My doctor said around 120/80 is the normal target and they get worried if it goes much above that consistently. They check BP at every single visit for this reason. If yours is running high, please dont ignore it.
My BP was a little low actually and I kept worrying it should be exactly 120/80. The doctor said small ups and downs are okay. Did others also stress over every reading like me?
