    Pregnant and low blood pressure?
    Hi. I have been trying for a baby for a month now. And believe when I say we have been at it. Every other two days. So on Saturday I am suppose to start my menstual cycle. And have been Extremely tired. I feel like I need to nap every four hours. This started about a week ago. I believe I ovulated around that time too. I have been eating a lot also. I feel like if I'm not eating I'm sleeping. Been really aggravated, emotional and all. And about two days ago I can barely touch my nipples. Does anyone think I am pregnant. For the last two days my mother has tooken my blood pressure. And I think the normal blood pressure is suppose to be 120/80. Mine has been 106/55. What is up with that? Could I be anemic? Or when your pregnant does your bp change?

    Do you know what your blood pressure normally is? There should be records kept by your doctor. You may be ill. Is your mom a nurse?

    If your menstrual cycle doesn't start by Sunday, test your first urine of the day. A pregnancy test can give you a false negative, but it can't give a false positive.

    A doctor's appointment would be your best bet. They can draw blood to check for pregnancy. Your symptoms might be PMS.

    We can't really answer your question. You will have to wait to see if your period comes or not, then test using first morning urine.

    Blood pressures can vary according to activity level. Low blood pressure is not uncommon.

    My blood pressure use to be about 120/80 now its real low about 96-100/65-70 but I work overnights and am usually always tired, if you are feeling tired and feel that you are resting a lot more, that may be why your blood pressure has lowered, but I would still get some labs done make sure everything is OK.

    There is a chance that you could be pregnant but there is also a chance that your low blood pressure is causing your symptoms. I would test with first morning urine a day or so after your period is due then see your doctor but good luck x
