38 weeks pregnant, dr said currently my bp is little high (140/80) so told me to take rest & do walk for 15 min to 20 min alone.why rest in this case?

Discuss with doc: Elevated blood pressure at the end of the pregnancy can indicate a serious complication called preeclampsia. In this case it would be irresponsible for us to discuss on healthtap. This is a very important issue for you to discuss with your doctor. If you have any concerns or questions about the management then please ask your doctor for clarification.
