High Blood Pressure during pregnancy ?

Anyone have high BP? I started having it at the end of my 1st pregnancy and it's stuck with me. The medication I was on I cannot take while pregnant, so my Dr. changed it. Ever since, I feel like cr@p.
Anyone taking anything and if so, what is it?

Feel free to FM me if you'd feel more comfortable.

Thanks

Re: High Blood Pressure during pregnancy ?

something called PIH (pregnancy induced hypertension). My BP has been above normal since week 14 and now that i am in week 34 it is starting to rise. I know the most common medicine is Aldament which can be used during pregnancy. I see a materna fetal specialist for my Bp and she says that there are tons of drugs that you can take.. i would just see what they can five you.

Good luck
