high blood pressure

[bbyboy1]

Went to my Dr today nd my blood pressure is still high its been coming out high since I was three months..He said if it keeps up I could go into birth earlier than what I'm suppose to im six months, is there anything I could do so it won't be so high.

I have high bp too ... Its been somewhat controlled with medication but be sure to watch your salt intake ! And don't be stressed about anything. Take It easy

I would just take precautions to lower it, which from what I know: lower your salt intake(like said above), if you smoke, stop(also for the health of your little one!), and don't have any caffeine. I would stay away from coffee, soda, and anything else with high sodium, caffeine and sugar because those all can raise it! It's best to try to control it before it gets bad:) prevention is the best way to avoid problems.

[bbyboy1]

Are you suppose to be on some kind of diet or something? My Dr just told me to go back in three weeks &if its still high he'll put Me on some medication, is there anything I could do so it won't be high?

Limit your salt intake,.it does make it go up
