I'm there too.  The only time my bp is high is in the last trimester (when it is so
high that it scares the doctors).  With my family history, it stuns people that
mine is normal.  Just wish that someone could figure out why it goes up so
drastically at that point in pregnancy.  The only thing they can tell me is that it
is not pre-enclampsia and does not seem to be dangerous to my babies.  Other than
that, they are stumped but good.
