I took it at the stupid drug store and it was like 111/69, so I took it again and it was like 96/65 or something like that... usually I am 120/80... should I be worried???

Re: Is it normal for your blood pressure to become lower while preggo?
VERY normal. Especially the 1st and second trimester.
When I was PG before my BP would drop to 85/50 at times.
Its a side effect of PG to have low blood pressure.
Nothing to be worried about at all. Your Dr will tell you its normal.
Be careful getting up liek from bed too quickly though b/c it lowers when your sitting and you might have dizzy spells if you jump up or move too fast.

I always had low blood pressure - in a good way, not an unhealthy way... so I never listen when they tell me at the dr.'s - I'll pay attention next time...

at my last doctor visit my blood pressure was 110/60 so I guess it is pretty normal to have lower blood pressure...
