High blood pressure, very low heart rate and beta blockers

Has anyone had trouble with high blood pressure after baby has arrived? The highest few readings have been 158/100 and 169/85

My blood pressure was a bit up and down towards the end of pregnancy but extremely low until around 35/36 weeks pregnant around 105/60.

My alt level had started to rise too. Awaiting blood test results to see if this has come down.

Since birth my blood pressure has continued going up and I have been put on beta blockers with several blood tests and blood pressure checks booked in. No one has said why this could be happening or what happens next. I’m a little concerned and just wondering if anyone has had similar?

My heart rate is sitting around 45-48, resting heart rate when asleep drops to 38-40. Before pregnancy it was around 57.
