Changes To Your Body
After being a little lower for the past few months, your blood pressure should be back to where it was pre-pregnancy (anything less than 130/85 mm/HG is considered normal for expectant mums).
Dxnat some women do experience a mink false eyelashes of higher-than-normal blood pressure called pre-eclampsia. It affects up to eight percent of all pregnant women, and there’s not much you can do to prevent it.
Women who are overweight or carrying multiples, or who already have high blood pressure or a family history of diabetes face a greater risk than women without these factors. Many women with mild cases do fine with bed rest and regular blood pressure monitoring. But those with more severe cases may need to deliver their babies early because pre-eclampsia can restrict blood flow to the fetus.
The main symptoms of pre-eclampsia are bad headaches, swelling in your hands or face, sudden weight gain, blurry vision, or upper abdominal pain. If you experience any of these, your doctor will run blood and urine tests to make a definitive diagnosis.
Lifestyle Considerations
As the baby kicking or shifting around in your womb several times a night wakes you up you might also find yourself experiencing some bizarre dreams. This is completely normal.
