High blood pressure postpartum?
Anyone dealing with this? Ever since I gave birth my BP has been crazy high. I went to my two week pp check up and my blood pressure was 150/82. My doctor put me on HBP medication and wants me to come back in 2 weeks to check it. He said I could be suffering from preeclampsia postpartum which I never knew was a thing. He said that pregnancy could also have triggered my blood pressure to increase since I have a family history of it. I have been lacking a ton of sleep since giving birth and thought maybe the lack of sleep and just the overall first time mom anxiety could be contributing to it. I was also extremely active during my pregnancy and now since giving birth i obviously can’t do much until 6 weeks so maybe once I start getting active again it will go down?
