A pregnant woman's blood pressure should be the same as any other person's normal blood pressure, around 120/80 (give or take 5-10 points). It is important to monitor the blood pressure during pregnancy, to watch for preeclampsia and eclampsia.

If you are pregnant and your blood pressure is running abnormally high, immediately get medical care for the safety of yourself and your baby.

Pregnancy and High Blood Pressure?

If you are pregnant or recently gave birth to a new baby, have your blood pressure monitored regularly. The incidence of strokes in pregnant women and new moms is on the rise and high blood pressure is a major contributing factor. You have a new child to raise, so your health needs to be a priority. Purchase a blood pressure monitor at any drug store and stay on top of this. Your child needs you.
