Congrats on your new little guy! He is so handsome. What a cutie! Just wanted to add that I had a severe headache/migraine after my last baby was born in August 2009. I had severe post partum PE and was readmitted back into ICU. I went to an Opthamologist and a Neurologist and had every test you cou...

Hi McKenna, welcome to the forums! It sounds like your doctor is staying on top of things with the 24 hr. Be your own advocate!! Checking your blood pressure at home is perfect. Report any high readings to your doc and you may want to start charting your bp taking it at the same time each day. One o...

Hi Mindy! Just wanted to welcome you back! I am just now coming back on here too after a little hiatus (busy life) Glad to hear you and your baby are well!!

My blood pressure never normalized. My son will be 18 months tomorrow and I am still on my bp med. The good news is I was released on 4 meds and now I only take one low dose bp med. I wish I didn't have to take that, but I do. It took me a long time to accept that fact, but I have. I never had high ...

I now also have chronic hypertension. My son is 18 months old tomorrow and my bp never went back to normal. The good news is that I was released on 4 meds and now just take one that controls mine very well. I can relate (as most ladies on this forum) with your feelings about your traumatic experienc...

Started on mag immediately after delivery for 24 hours and then put back on it for 24 hours when I was readmitted 5 days post partum back into ICU for 4 more days.
