Blood Pressure question

Does anyone have low blood pressure during pregnancy? I know they say your blood pressure dips during pregnancy, but mine was 99/55 last night. Seemed a little low, but I felt totally fine, so I wasn't concerned. Just curious if anyone else has had low blood pressure. My blood pressure has always been perfect- never high and never this low.

Blood Pressure question

Mine was 85/60 last thurs and the week before 90/50. I have fainted 2x so far. The dr said it will raise in the 3rd tri. Just drink lots of water and nibble every over. Oh and no steps which is funny since I am the 3rd floor of a walk up. Just keep an eye on it and if you feel light headed lay down and hydrate.

Oh geez! I work on the third floor of my school and its 40 steps up to my classroom. I will have to do it slower.

Blood Pressure question

My normal BP is usually 90/60 so I'm used to the low BP. Through the pregnancy it has been about the same as before pregnancy. I can feel when it dips below that too. I just went to the doctor and it's 104/70 (that's my 3rd trimester increase).

Make sure you drink A LOT and always keep something with salt in your bag in case you feel faint. Blood sugar needs sugar but BP needs salt. No one ever told me about the stairs thing though. We don't take the stairs since we live on the 18th floor but I've taken stairs and been ok (my parents house is ALL stairs).
