Hypertensive disorders in pregnancy signal an increased risk of cardiovascular disease for women. However, future hypertension risk among pregnant women with moderately elevated blood pressure (BP) is unknown. We examined associations among moderately elevated BP or hypertensive disorders during pregnancy and later prehypertension or hypertension.Longitudinal cohort study.Five communities in Michigan, USA.Data are from pregnant women enrolled in the Pregnancy Outcomes and Community Health Study. We included 667 women with gestational BP measurements who participated in the POUCHmoms Study follow-up 7-15 years later.Moderately elevated BP was defined as two measures of systolic BP ≥ 120 mmHg or diastolic BP ≥80 mmHg among women without a hypertensive disorder. Weighted multinomial logistic regression models estimated odds of prehypertension or hypertension at follow-up, adjusted for maternal confounders and time to follow-up.Prehypertension or hypertension.Women meeting the moderately elevated BP criteria (64
