@haiyaa,
How did you manage the blood pressure,
Things that you shud know ......
High blood pressure can decrease blood flow to the placenta,which affects your baby's supply of oxygen and nutrients. This may slow your baby's growth and increase the risk of preterm delivery. High blood pressure also increases the risk of placental abruption,in which the placenta prematurely separates from the uterus. Rarely,high blood pressure poses life-threatening complications.
Later risks may be a concern,too. High blood pressure during pregnancy may increase your risk of diabetes,heart disease and kidney disease later in life.
different types of high blood pressure during pregnancy
Chronic hypertension. If high blood pressure develops before 20 weeks of pregnancy or lasts more than 12 weeks after delivery,it's known as chronic hypertension. Often,chronic hypertension was present — but not detected — before pregnancy.
Gestational hypertension. If high blood pressure develops after 20 weeks of pregnancy,it's known as gestational hypertension. Although it usually goes away after delivery,gestational hypertension may increase the risk of developing chronic high blood pressure in the future.
Preeclampsia. Sometimes chronic hypertension or gestational hypertension leads to preeclampsia,a serious condition characterized by increased blood pressure and protein in the urine after 20 weeks of pregnancy. Left untreated,preeclampsia can lead to serious — even fatal — complications for both mother and baby.
prevent complications
Keep your prenatal appointments. Visit your health care provider regularly throughout your pregnancy.
Take your blood pressure medication as prescribed. Your health care provider will prescribe the safest medication at the most appropriate dose.
Get plenty of rest. Take a daily nap,if you can. Follow your health care provider's recommendations for exercise and activity. If you develop signs of preeclampsia,bed rest may be recommended.
Eat healthy foods. Limit the amount of sodium in your diet,and remember to take your prenatal vitamins.
Monitor your weight. Gaining the right amount of weight supports your baby's growth and development,but gaining too much weight places additional stress on your heart.
Know what's off-limits. Avoid smoking,alcohol and illicit drugs.
