Postpartum Pre-eclampsia??

Eliazabeth

I was diagnosed with pre-eclampsia in the 3rd trimester and had my son at 36 weeks.

I am now 4.5 weeks postpartum and my doctor discovered at an appointment today that my blood pressure is still running high at 135/85, after 4 different readings throughout the appointment.

However, she said it is still not high enough to put me on high blood pressure medicine due to my age, 24.

Is anyone else still dealing with high blood pressure after Pre-E? If so, what is your plan of care?

Should I be concerned with my current readings?
