Not low slightly raised if anything

If you were resting, that's borderline high. I'd keep an eye on it.

140+ is when midwives may start getting concerned. It's right below the border. Mine has consistently been between 132-136 for whole pregnancy so I know why it's like living on the edge 😂

Low?! As soon at it reaches 140+ midwives are straight on your case and send you to hospital you need a new doctor..😂 like the comments above it is borderline of being high blood pressure, I had this in my pregnancy and it reached 142 and I was straight to hospital diagnosed with pre hypertension, I would defo keep an eye on that figure especially if you were well rested before this reading. xx

140/90 is when midwives worry and ask you to go in. You should be 120/80. If that’s when you’re resting, that’s high.
