    rylansmum- U poor thing. I totally know how u feel. I had extremely low blood pressure when I was pg with the twins. I was not allowed to drive. I even had a blackout in the plane on the way to hospital. For some reason I tend to lose hearing when Im on my way out. Monday just gone, I passed out in the car after picking the boys up from kinder, and when I came to, I spewed everywhere. It is the first time I have ever spewed after a blackout. I was also told that laying on your back can make ur blood pressure drop. Dont know if its right though. Hope u start feeling better.

    I was feeling really dizzy today at lunch and got my BP taken at work (I work in a hospital) and it was 95/55. I'm 27w1d pregnant.
    I understand that low BP isn't too bad in pregnancy - and I just have to be careful not to keel over - but am just wondering how it affects the baby? Does anyone know?

    Thanks

    A BP of 95/55 will have no effect on your baby
