Question for moms or moms to be..........?

Question

The doctor told me on my last appt that i have hypertension and I need to see a specialist. Do any of you ladies have this? Has it effected your child? Please let me know I am very scared.

Answer 1

Hypertension = high blood pressure. It's not "normal" so to speak; however, it is fairly common. Many ways to fix it... I wouldn't be super concerned.  

Answer 2

hi serra

i had hypertension towards the end of my pregnancy. the doctor wanted me to check-in with him every week. we did urine, blood pressure tests and checked my weight.

i was refered to a specialist also... and they gave me advice on how to handle the hypertension so i could try to control it.

i had my precious little love a month ago and he is perfect..

if u have hypertension and your doctor controls it... no worries for the baby.

if it gets out of hand... then worst case scenario .. they will make u go in labor.

DONT stress over this......... it will make hypertension worst.
