Hello,
thanks for using health care magic

Congratulations for your baby girl.
Breast milk let is influence by various factors including psychological state of mind,
diet and rhythm of breastfeeding. Stress distorts the mind leading psychological effects which could reduce the milk let down. Diet should be balance and enough to provide for both you and the baby. more so, you should take a lot of fluids without which milk let down will not be effective.
The frequency with which you breastfeed the child also matters, you should breastfeed the child more often to stimulate breast flow continuously. As concerns the hypertension, you need regular follow-up and if the blood pressure requires anti-hypertensive drugs, you need to be put on them.
Best regards and hope this helps you.
