Why is My Blood Pressure So Low During Pregnancy?

Why is my blood pressure so low during pregnancy?

We could fix that by telling you how much college will cost when your kid turns 18.

That’s not the solution I need.

I’m assuming there is not another reason for low blood pressure like a bad thyroid.

Not that I know of.

In some regards, you want blood pressure as low as it can go without passing out. High blood pressure is a definite health hazard, and if it is preeclampsia, life threatening.

My blood pressure is getting too low. I get dizzy and lightheaded sometimes.

Try lying on your side instead of your back. You can develop those symptoms if the kid is putting too much pressure on the veins in your back.

I have low blood pressure even when I get up in the morning.

It is normal to be fatigued when pregnant, so do not mistake that for low blood pressure.

The doctor says I have low blood pressure.

When you’re pregnant, your circulatory system is expanding. The result can be lower blood pressure even as your heart works harder to circulate all the volume, since you have to nurture two.

I have to pee for two, as well.

Really bad morning sickness to the point of severe dehydration can make your blood pressure drop.

It seems like everything makes me need to throw up.

Talk to your doctor. If you are dehydrated to the point of low blood pressure, you may need fluids to get rehydrated.

I’ve already talked to the doctor, and all I hear at this point is to use pressure bands on my wrists and ginger.

And that tastes worse coming up than it does going down.

What can I do about it?

Eat more salt, get more rest, drink more water, wait until the second trimester passes because that’s when your blood pressure is the lowest.

I’m at around that point.

The blood pressure can drop when you’re trying to stand up or rise suddenly, so go slow.

It already takes me forever to get up.

Try resting at an angle in the recliner instead of laying flat on a couch, so there’s less of a sudden drop in blood pressure when you stand up to rush to the bathroom.

A lot of people have a drop in blood pressure after eating. Try eating smaller meals throughout the day to regulate both blood sugar and blood pressure.

Which is supposed to help with the nausea anyway.

Just take it easy, eat, drink and be merry before you have the baby. And if you still need your blood pressure up, I’ll tell you how much they expect the cost of raising the kid to be.
