Blood Pressure

Question

Hi everyone. My gynae told me that I have borderline high blood pressure. I am also obese so does any of you have the same issue? Were any of you prescribed aspirin? Also how do I reduce my blood pressure apart from exercise and losing weight?

Doctors also say cuz I’m overweight and having twins, that I will have higher chance of having preeclampsia so they gave me aspirin when I was 12 weeks. But I had an allergic reaction - swollen eyes and difficulty breathing. It’s not safe to lose weight now during pregnancy. It might harm the baby. For now, I’m measuring my blood pressure with the blood pressure machine at home on a daily basis. Also try to eat healthier food and cut down on those unhealthy food.
