Summary

Women who have the diagnosis of hypertension (pre-pregnancy and pregnancy induced) and deliver an infant via vaginal delivery will be placed into two groups in the postpartum period. One group will receive Ibuprofen for pain control and the other group will be given Tylenol. Blood pressures during the postpartum period will then be collected and compared in order to see if NSAIDs use increases blood pressure.
