Hi all
Just popping in with a quick question - my blood pressure has been low all preganancy but I'm 30 wks now and it fallen to 80/50. Should I be worried? Is there anything I can do about it?? Midwife doesnt seem too concerned and is happy to see me again in 4weeks.
thanks

is your bp normally on the low side? mine's usually 100/60 or 90/60 after about 26wks but at 13wks recently it was 80/56 and my midwife said she wasn't worried as its not "that" low compared to my usual bp
provided your not also anemic then I don't think there is anything you can do x

My blood pressure is always low...very low in fact and i have always been told its very good unless you start experiencing problems...eg fainting etc....

babies have to go into hosp within a few days of the birth to have a check over to make sure everything is ok, lewis has a small hole in his heart and nothing was picked up until he was 6-9 months, he is smaller than the rest and skinnier but apart from that he has n other probs. away to football practice again this week!

my blood pressure is normally within normal range 110/70 (i think) but its gradually got lower throughout this pregnancy. Glad its no cause for concern - thnaks

1/2 thorough the day and still no signs of anything coming. Think i'm going to sneak off work early and go home, maybe tidy at bit as boyf is proper stressing about the mess i keep leaving and what will all the people who are going to desend on us will think!! silly boy!! i don't care but he is getting really stressed with everything love him he's having the nesting instinct not me..

So far he has put in a complete kotchen, decorated bathroom and looking for other stuff to do. As well as working full time doing overtime, doing up his cars and preparing for an interview. i think he may pop not me

maybe you should go n chop some wood? hehe I popped Chris out after a Chinese that had a good amount of chilli and pineapple in it. I'm not a nester either so I won't be cleaning to get mine to budge when the time comes visitors are banned for 2 weeks also so hubby can clean the house while on paternity leave :rotfl:

miss_corerupted - I can't believe that you are actually in work at all!

My house will be scrubbed to within an inch of it's life by the time I get to that stage - hubby is 'doing things up' and I am frantically cleaning anything and everything after him.

Sending labour vibes to you and SB.

MFD is it you who likes those oatcakes that look like pancakes?
I discovered "stoke oatcakes" in my local tesco last night, shame I'm allergic to oats :doh:

I'm only early on (9+5 today) but our flat is a complete tip at the moment..
I feel in the mood to clean and tidy, but I'm SO tired!!!

I still keep walking around aimlessly with the thought of our scan in my head... when that little hand moved... *sigh*

Oh sami, that's a shame.. You're missing out on a real treat!

I'm just waiting for my Nana to come, she's popping in on the off chance and I'm really glad because it means a lift to school... Really hope my firends DD gets well soon so she can go back to giving me lifts.. The walk down and up the hill killed me this morning...

I noticed the other morning my bump felt rock hard... and it's gone softer again today... I thought I might get worried but then baby rolled over... So I figure the other morning it must of just had it's bum in the air or something...
