Call OB Dr.: First call your OB-Gyn or FM Dr. to see if they want to meet you at the hospital or see you in the office the next day. Do you have a history of preeclampsia in past pregnancy?

Need to be evaluated: At 34 weeks with a slight headache and elevated BP , this should be evaluated further to rule out preeclpsia or high blood pressure of pregnancy.
