    Post-natal PE

    Hi all, just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? I didn't develop it until 6 days after birth and had never heard of this occurring before.
    Now I am on anti hypertensive medication. Just wondering when anyone who was on these types of drugs was allowed to stop taking them.
    Thanks in advance.

    I have heard of PE occuring post nataly. I'm glad your BP is now controlled though.

    I had BP medication for about 6 months post natal, if that helps.

    Congratulations and good luck x

    Thanks Zoe and Welshgirl. I am seeing the nephrologist this week, so hopefully he will be able to tell me when I can stop the tabs.

    Cheers
