High Blood Preasure In Pregnancy Posted: 08-12-03 19:30pm
Hi im pregnant with my third child and was
preaclampsic with my first two.
Im only eight weeks pregnant and am
allready on blood pressure medication.
Does anybody have any suggestions for
lowering my blood pressure. Does anybody
know if taking apple cider vinegar is safe
while pregnant?

High Blood Pressure Posted: 08-13-03 11:40am
I had all the bad stuff when I was
pregnant. Gestational diabetes and
preeclampsia. My doctor told me to keep
my feet up and lay on my left side as much
as possible. Try these things..... If
you are still concerned question your
ob/gyn about it.
Good luck!

the 3 Hour Test Posted: 12-08-04 11:47am
I have to take the 3 hour test, because my
first 1 hour test came out with very high
glucose levels. Does anyone know if this
means i'm a good candidate for gestational
diabetes
it's kinda got me scared. I'm 34 weeks,
and nothings gone wrong except for the
results of the glucose screen test. This
is my first baby, and was curious as to
what anyone has to say about this or can
help me prevent this...Maybe some good
eating tips that have low sugar? Please
help me!

it is all during pregnancy most of the
time, and your pancreas may not be using
the sugar the way it is suppose to. What
do you eat/drink? Also they will give you
a pill or insulin to help lower it
