How to deal with consistently low diastolic blood pressure (85-95 mmHg) during pregnancy?

Patient's question:

During pregnancy, my blood pressure has been consistently in the range of 85-95. How can it be stabilized without medication? Or what can I eat that won't affect the baby? During pregnancy, I was diagnosed with gestational hypertension. After giving birth, my blood pressure was normal, but recently I've been experiencing dizziness, and my blood pressure has been high for a week. Since getting pregnant, I haven't slept well at all, and I've gained about 50 pounds. How can I stabilize these two aspects?

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to help you with your question! According to your description of the condition, have your blood pressure readings for the past week all been over 90 mmHg? During breastfeeding, medications should be used with caution, and poor rest can also lead to a drop in blood pressure. You can try controlling your weight through diet and improving sleep quality through rest to see if it helps. It is recommended to consult with a doctor in the department of cardiology for further advice.
The above is the advice for the question "What should I do if my blood pressure keeps being between 85-95 mmHg during breastfeeding?" I hope it helps you, and wish you good health!
