Just thought I'd chime in with my experience. I htink drs go on a case-by-case basis as far as a goal for delivery. I delivered at 38w (labor started naturally) and had been txed for PIH since week 18 (bedrest and meds). Even on meds/bedrest, my BP ran around 140+/92+. The last month of pg I was gaining a pound of water weight per day (yeah, that was fun ;-))and was seeing the dr multiple times a week. All was well with the baby...I would have an NST every dr visit, and we planned on keeping things going as long as the baby didn't show signs of stress.
I wish you all the best!! :-)
