High blood pressure early in pregnancy?


I developed preclampsia with my son at 38 weeks which wasn't a huge preoblem because they just delievered him then and he was 8 and 1/2 lbs. I am 9 weeks pregnant and just had my first doc visit and my blood pressure was high. They told me to take my blood pressure twice a day for the next few days then I go back on friday. She will put me on medicine. Is this medication dangerous?? Anyone else go through this same thing early on?? what happened??

if it was dangerous they wouldnt give it to you..if they give you the medication theres a reason for it...so take the medication.
