Hello dear,I understand your concern.The BP is said to be high when it is equal to more than 140/90 mm Hg.If high BP is associated with protein in urine and edema feet then it is called preeclampsia.It might be due to cause at blood vessels level.Dont worry as there are medicines available which control the BP.If the BP is not getting controlled with medicine and is persistently high then labour is artificially induced for delivery.If the BP is controlled and the fetal movements are good you can wait upto EDD.So relax and avoid stress.
