it had 70% chance to be normal as your BP is normal; But it can be early preeclampsia also; so you need regular BP check up, blood tests and urine examination. please do the following and review or consult your gynaecologist.
COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT, SERUM CREATININE, URIC ACID, BLOOD UREA, LIVER ENZYMES(SGOT, SGPT,LDH), URINE TEST FOR PROTEIN(ALBUMIN), SONOGRAM FOR FLUID, PLACENTAL FUNCTION, BABY'S GROWTH.
