Preeclampsia likely: If your blood pressures are greater than 140/90, then you need to see an ob/gyn not a midwife since you may have preeclampsia. Preeclampsia accounts for 10 to 30% of all maternal deaths yearly and is very important to be controlled. You should see a physician as soon as possible.
