Shortness of breath?

Torri

1 week postpartum and this morning I kept waking up gasping for air and no matter which way I laid I couldn’t catch my breath. I checked my blood pressure and it’s 150/110 (my feet have also been swollen since delivery) so I called my OB and he said to lay with my feet elevated for an hour and recheck it. Now I’m laying with my feet elevated and I really can’t breathe 😭 plus my husband had to go back to work today so I have the baby all by myself
