   I have a medical disorder that makes my BP low, and worse during pregnancy.
   The main thing your wife needs is to stay hydrated, drink lots and lots of water. Fluids keep the BP up.
   Eat every few hours. Small meals regularly. This will keep her energy levels up, and head clear.
   May sound a bit of a no no, but salt. Eat salty foods ( not too many!!) as this is good for low BP.

   Eat lots of green foods and raw vegies. Also make sure she is getting plenty of exercise.

   Unfortunately the only way to increase blood pressure is to sit or lie down correctly if you cannot take the blood pressure pills. You would need to speak to a doctor about which medication is safe during pregnany.

   Other than that she needs to take it easy and relax as much as possible. She should lie on her left side for maximum blood flow to the baby and she should not stand for long periods of time.

   Good luck.
