Your blood pressure at 105/60 and 112/65 is very good and is actually much better than the normal of 120/80. Lower down to 90/60 is much better than higher up to 140/90. Your pulse is certainly a bit high because the normal is from 60 to 80 and below 60 down to 50 or even 45 is much better than higher up to 95 or 100. You should not really be checking you BP and pulse after eating because they are both meant to be checked at least a couple of hours after eating.<br><b>References : </b><br> Low blood pressure means below 90/60.

Ask your doctor for an anitemetic (scopolamine, phenergen) for days when the vomitting is really bad. Your irregular heartbeats probably came as a result of dehydration as decreased blood volume is a bit of shock to your system. What concerns me is the increased heart rate when you eat. I have heard of this in conjunction with an ailing gallbladder. As far as your blood pressure is concerned, pregnancy just messes with it. Generally hypertensive patients will suddenly become hypotensive and vice-versa. Do what you can to maintain proper fluids, take your vitamins, exercise as much as you can tolerate, keep all of your prenatal appointments, eat well and dont be afraid to call the doctor or go to the ER if something isnt right.
