The more babies you have the more likely it is that you will not go beyond your due date so I have my fingers crossed for you. The best way to avoid going postdates though is to reduce any stress/anxiety and increase the oxytocin (love hormone) in your body. So, try not to worry about going postdates and arrange some love time with your family, every cuddle counts. You could also help things along a little by considering raspberry leaf tea, it has links to preventing women from going postdates. You start drinking it in the third trimester, do a little research and give it some thought.

How many weeks are you?

Have you thought about using some lavender to help with the blood pressure? You don't want to mask any symptoms of pre-eclampsia but if they've ruled that out and think it to be pregnancy induced hypertension or chronic hypertension lavender may help.
