BP is usually lower in the morning and tends to raise later.Idealy you should measure your BP twice daily,after resting for atleast 5-10 minutes.Take your BP readings while being seated upright with your back rested ,cuff at the heart level and legs uncrossed.Take 3 readings, consider the average of the last 2 readings.

Prior to taking the readings, it is essential to rest for a duration of ten minutes and refrain from smoking or consuming caffeinated beverages such as coffee or tea.
