Hi,
Your wife has a condition called pregnancy induced hypertension which is a potentially dangerous condition that needs to be monitored daily.PIH has harmful effects on the mother and the baby and can even cause fatalities.Controlling the bp with medications is really important. Complications are more difficult to manage so please advise your wife to take regular medicines and doctor's visits.Labetalol is a drug that controls blood pressure.
