Hi, my hubby and I are not "officially" TTC, but are considering starting to try this year… Unfortunately, I am currently overweight… and because of it I have blood pressure problems. Realizing the health risks when a person has high blood pressure and pregnant, I would like to lose as much weight as possible before we start trying. Does anyone have any suggestions, or is anyone in the same situation I am in? I just want to make sure that I am as healthy as I can be, when I am pregnant. Thanks…
Congrats Tina on your pregnancy:)
An associate of mine of normal weight and blood pressure, got pregnant and developed high blood pressure throughout her pregnancy. The moment she gave birth, the BP went back to normal. The doctor told her she should never get pregnant again. Against his advice, she got pregnant again and the high blood pressure not only came back but it stayed and has been with her since. Still a fairly normal weight, her BP can be normal one day and way the next. Any ideas on what could be causing this? It even has her doctors stumped.
My wife’s blood pressure always drops to 90/60 during pregnancy, are there any safe medicines or food supplements to increase the blood pressure?
