What is high blood pressure range in pregnancy?

Question

I had a blood pressure check recently and want to understand the numbers better. What is considered the normal or high blood pressure range when you are pregnant?

Harini Chauhan · Answer

Usually 140/90 and above is high. While keeping calm and drinking coconut water helps, high BP is serious during pregnancy, so please call your doctor right away.

Hemlata Chawla · Answer

Anything above 140/90 is considered high in pregnancy. Please check with your doctor immediately.

Meri saas humesha bolti thi ki pregnancy me BP control me rehna chahiye. Agar 140/90 se jyada aa raha hai toh bina wait kiye doctor se consult karo.

I know how scary it is to see the BP numbers go up, my anxiety made it even worse! If it's crossing 140/90, please don't panic but definitely contact your doctor or visit the clinic to be safe.

Humare yahan bolte hain BP badhna sahi nahi hota. Agar 140/90 se upar hai toh turant doctor ke paas jao, bilkul deri mat karna behan.

A reading of 140/90 mmHg or higher is generally classified as gestational hypertension. Please don't rely on home remedies for this; get in touch with your gynac as they might need to monitor you closely.
