The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a research pharmacist can improve the health of new mothers and their babies. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Will postpartum women who had elevated blood pressure during pregnancy be willing to participate in the study, talk to a pharmacist about their health and the health of their child, and text us their blood pressure measurements? * Will contact with the pharmacist improve the health of the mother and/or the child?
Participants will:
* complete a baseline demographic survey, * be given a blood pressure cuff and taught how to use it, * be asked to text us their blood pressure values 2 times per day for 7 days after enrollment, * complete a phone call with a pharmacist discussing their health and the health of their baby, * text us their blood pressure 1 time per day for 3 days 1 month after enrollment, * have a 1 month follow-up phone call with the research pharmacist, and * complete an exit survey to provide feedback about the study.
