How to keep bp in control during pregnancy?

Question

My bp came slightly high at my last checkup and the gynac asked me to watch it. Im in my 7th month and a bit nervous now. What did you all do to keep it steady, any small changes that helped?

Stress raises BP a lot, so I focused on staying calm with prayer and slow breathing. Eat well, rest and keep your mind peaceful. And of course keep your doctor in the loop.

I had BP issues so I learnt to monitor it regularly and never skip checkups. Less salt, enough rest and following my doctor's advice helped a lot. If readings go high, dont wait, call your gynac.

I kept a small BP machine at home since office stress was real. Cutting down salt, taking short breaks and walking helped me manage. Track it and report to your doctor, simple and practical.
