How to deal with low blood pressure during pregnancy?

Question

I've been diagnosed with low blood pressure during my pregnancy, and sometimes I feel a bit dizzy. What are some simple, safe ways to manage or deal with low blood pressure while expecting?

Saraswati Shenoy · Answer

Keep yourself super hydrated, drink coconut water and ORS. Also, eat small frequent meals and don't skip breakfast. If you feel too dizzy, immediately inform your gynac.

Same here, sipping on buttermilk with a pinch of salt really helped keep my pressure stable.

Low BP mein chakkar aate hain, ho na. Thoda nimbu paani mein namak dalkar peeya karo aur sudden khade mat hona.

Mrinal Chatterjee · Answer

I have naturally low BP, so I'm researching this for when I get pregnant. Does taking extra salt in food actually help or should we ask the doc first?

Beta, dahi mein thoda sa namak dalkar khaya karo aur jab bhi so kar utho, pehle karvat lekar aaram se baitho. Ekdum se khade hone se chakkar aa sakta hai.
