Low blood pressure :/

[Karina517]

Well today I went to my weekly doctors appointment and they told me that my blood pressure was low and that they might move up my c section :/ I'm kinda scared and nervous ! Anybody else go through this ?

Omg that sounds awful :/ no they didn't give me anything they just want to check me sooner and if my blood pressure is still low they will take me for a c section that day ! I told him I've been feeling really tired and weak lately, he said if it keeps on going or gets worse to call him ASAP !

Ugh, I had the opposite and had high blood pressure.  That's a little scary, I'm sure but at least they are aware and have a plan!  I know that when I was in the hospital my blood pressure was all over the place and I had a swift drop when they gave me my epidural.  I got really spacy and woozy and it was just uncomfortable. They quickly added meds to bring my blood pressure back up.  So, just monitor how you are feeling.  If you feel really super weird, call your doctor.  I know weird is a subjective term but if you talk to people who have a major blood pressure drop, they all say it is weird feeling.  You probably feel pretty normal right now.  So look for a change.  Did they send you home with a blood pressure cuff?  ( I have a cheapy that I got at the drug store.  The whole blood pressure up and down thing caused me to want one of my own to monitor it but sometimes docs will give you one).  

anyway, you are in good hands with your doc and it sounds like they are taking good care of you.  good luck
