U need to discuss th: This with your OB so call this weekend if problems because it depends if you have chronic hypert or pregnancy induced hypert or both and how bad it is , anyone with any type of hypert needs to be monitored closely and whether you are now on meds or not and will need to be delivered before their due date so please discuss the plan with your ob.
