mine's always right around that too... i rarely top 90/60. for me, it took twin pregnancy to get it up to around 120/90.

i think it just has to do with being young and in shape. if you don't have any odd symptoms, you're cool. if you're still worried, just down a bag of cheetos and chase it with some kfc and liquor. should put you in a less worrisome spot ;)

That's very low. You're doing great!

I think my last time, I was like 115/75. I'm cool with that...
