Listen, high blood pressure is something you should not manage at home. Take a deep breath, sit down, and call your gynac right away to get checked.

While light walking can help with general health [1.2.4], high BP during pregnancy requires your doctor's approval first. Please talk to your gynac before doing any activity or taking remedies.
