HI, I understand your concern. * If you are already a patient of high blood pressure, you should inform your treating doctor about your pregnancy . So that he can change you treatment with a safer Chat Doctor.  * If the BP is raised with pregnancy, High Blood pressure in a single reading can be due to temporary physical/ psychological stress. SO Repeated recording of blood pressure showing raised BP is confirmatory . You will be given expectant treatment (rest, have stress-free life, try Panama/ meditation for mind concentration./ avoid excess salt, alcohole, late nights, smoking,.)  If not controlled with this a regular treatment/ regular checkups of urine & weight gain are kept. USG is done to monitor fetal development . And with these & regular medication, pregnancy can be taken to term & childbirth.  In short, don't be concerned, visit your doctor & follow the instructions given You will be alright.  Thanks,
