During my labor my blood pressure elevated to 179/110 I'm 21 and 125 pounds. It's still high, will this pass?

Question

My blood pressure is normally 97/73. I've changed my diet! What else can I do? Will this blow over?

Answer 1

it isn't abnormal to have your pressure raised with labor. but basically to determine if you have high blood pressure 3 seperate readings is needed. but basically yess your body will return it back. working out is also a good way to control you bp too.

Answer 2

I think you have THE best excuse for high bloodpressure on the plannet! Was it a boy or a girl?

Answer 3

talk to a doctor - it might, but if it doesn't there are prescriptions to lower bloodpressure.
