Im sure there's a bucketload of infomation of blood pressure, I just can't seem to find it.

Im 3 months pregnant, and Im just not sure what my bp is supposed to be. Does anyone know what it's spose to be around???

I've looked through google and bubhub but can't find to much, except for high bp.

Anything, from anyone will be helpful.

Cheers

Christie :)

It's just I took mine about 30mins ago, and it's 82/55

Is that normal??? :confused:

"normal" blood pressure ranges from about 90/60 to 130/90

But it varies so much from person to person.

It's normal for blood pressure to go higher during the later stages of pregnancy, due to higher maternal blood volume.

It sounds as though you have low blood pressure to me. I would get it checked out. having said that, i'm not medically trained at all - so don't take my word on it!

Do you know what your pre-preg BP was because it should be the same or very similar still. Many womens BP dips during the middle of there pregnancy though and then gets back up a bit later on.


Edited to add: when my bp is good and im not pregnant its 90/50 so very close to yours... when im pregnant its 'good' when its 120/80 or lower but its mostly around 150/100 or above with medication to keep it down due to pre-eclampsia
