Low blood pressure

Hi mommies. I'm 16 weeks and just had a doctor's visit Friday but my blood pressure was lower than normal, 96/50... I know normal is 120/80... anyone else have/had low bp while pregnant and have/did you have any symptoms or complications? Doctor said it's not alarming. I get occasional migraines, dizzines and nausea but so far my pregnancy has been good.

I had it with my first son low blood pressure unfortunately I had it throughout the whole pregnancy and I fainted once in public.  Its not bad nor dangerous for the baby you just have to drink alot of water amd actually drink it more than any other drink and make sure u eat fruits throughout the day.after I did that I didn't faint sometimes get light headed but I was working and had a hard time finding time to snack. Dont worry you and ur baby will be great!  God bless!

Low blood pressure is normal, mine dropped from the last time and they said that it's better than it being high :)
