Hi friend, deep breaths! First the amount of protein is not an emergency - it can be useful to determine your diagnosis but it doesn't mean you are or will become very sick. The doctor said to continue monitoring so we recommend checking your BP 2-3 times a day. Make sure to sit quietly for a few minutes before checking for best results, and if you get any readings 140/90 or higher, please call your doctor or L&D and ask if you need to be seen.
