post partum low blood pressure and dizziness
Hii mommies, I'm 6 weeks postpartum, had high BP 180/100 5 days postpartum. Dr did all the blood works, no postpartum preclampsia. Was given a dose of labetolol at the emergency. Discharged with no medications. BP settled after 1 week. My BP was 100/110 over 70/85 throughout my whole pregnancy. Now im feeling persistently dizzy and having low BP 85/60. Getting blurred vision, tingly tongue and hands and shortness of breath intermittently. Seen my gynae yesterday. BP was normal there 100/70. Dr did some blood works too, came back normal. I'm partially breastfeeding, pumping 3 hourly, sometimes I skip night pumps, output about 60-100mls each pump, still on prenatal vitamins and iron tablets. Unsure if it is related, this is an IVF pregnancy and I was in preterm labour from 32 weeks- delivered at 36 weeks (induced). Just very afraid that I might drop my daughter when carrying her. Anyone encountered this?#pregnancy #firsttimemom #Needadvice #lowbloodpressure #dizziness #lightheaded

hi mommies, today is post partum 7th day. Went to emergency on post partum 6th day due to high BP and low heart rate. Did a lot of blood test, all came back within range, cleared from PP pre eclampsia. During pregnancy, my BP was around 90-110/70-80. Now it's around 120-160/80-100 with on and off dizziness and headache. Highest was 187/110 at the emergency department. Taken a dose of labetolol and was discharged as BP normalised. Was not discharged with any medications. Anyone has similar encounter? #Needadvice #firsttimemom #pregnancy #highbloodpressure
