Blood pressure has always kind of confused me. I've done some looking on google but just wondered if any of you can just confirm that my blood pressure is good - I got 118/67 at 11 weeks.
Am I right in thinking it would be classed as low bp if the bottom number fell to below 60? I was once told I had low bp when I went for my check up for the pill a few years back but didn't really think much of it.
How close to low is 67, the number '7' doesn't seem a lot, but in the case of bp is it actually quite a bit? And what would be the risks of low bp in pregnancy? I know high bp can be an indicator of pre-eclampsia but haven't heard so much about low bp
