27---C) Both A & B.

Elevated blood pressure is correct option because it is one of the biggest hurdles in the pregnancy. Any blood pressure greater than 90/140 is considered as high blood pressure. 30 more than 90 that is diastolic and 15-20 more than 140 that is systolic can be considered as high blood pressure. It can be dangerous in pregnancy, so regular checkup is required to keep the blood pressure in control.

B is prtoteinuria is also correct answer because it is another sign of pre-eclampsia, is a result of protein that is confined in the blood by the kidney during formation, spilling in the urine. Pre-eclampsia damages the filter of the kidney and this is how albumin and many other proteins are lost.
