Does blood pressure rise in early pregnancy? Pregnant how to exercise properly?

summary

According to the American pregnancy Association, 6-8% of pregnant women suffer from high blood pressure. When systolic blood pressure (high pressure) exceeds 140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure (low pressure) exceeds 90 mmHg, you have high blood pressure. Overweight, pre pregnancy hypertension, multiple births, chronic diseases and (or) poor diet (high salt and high fat) are risk factors for gestational hypertension. Let's talk about the rise of blood pressure in early pregnancy.

Does blood pressure rise in early pregnancy? Pregnant how to exercise properly?

First: exercise. Women who lack exercise are more likely to have high blood pressure than those who exercise regularly. So whether you're pregnant or in pregnancy, talk to your doctor about starting an exercise program.

Second: monitoring body weight. Overweight can cause high blood pressure, so weight gain during pregnancy should be kept in a healthy range. Reasonable diet and regular exercise can control pregnancy weight gain.

Third, reduce stress. Whether pregnant or not, mental stress can lead to elevated blood pressure. Eliminate known stressors as much as possible.

matters needing attention

Try to control your breathing. Breathing techniques, such as diaphragmatic breathing, help calm the body and mind and relieve stress. In addition, the use of the diaphragm (muscle in the lower part of the lung) can make breathing more powerful and relieve pressure on other muscles in the neck and chest.
