BP and pregnancy: Your systolic BP is getting high. The definition of high BP in pregnancy depends upon pre-pregnancy BP values for you. If your BP rises 30 mmHg or more, then you qualify for hypertension, even if your BP is less than 130 still. At this stage, though, your BP values are at least borderline high. Check with your OB
