A friend of mine is scared to death she is going to have a c-section. She has been diagnosed with high blood pressure and she think she maybe in pre-labor. I told her it doesn't matter how she haves the baby as long as they are both safe. Are there any women who had high blood pressure or pre-eclampsia who were able to have a vaginal birth?
Not necessarily. It means that if it gets really bad she will have to deliver early. Meaning she will have to be induced.

I have high blood pressure and had a vaginal birth. but bcos of the high bp I went into preterm labor, which is common. About a month early so nothing crazy. Just tell her to rest a lot and take it easy. Towards the end I was on bed rest.
Pregnant again and my dr gave me same advice, rest and take it easy, lay down for an hour or so during day on left side.

I have high blood pressure and I'm scheduled for an induction on Monday. So the plan is a vaginal birth. My sister had a baby 9 months ago and she had pre eclampsia and she had a vaginal birth.
