Renin and Aldosterone Levels in the Preterm Neonate At Risk for Hypertension

The purpose of this study is to find out if mothers with high blood pressure (Hypertension) and/or diabetes have babies with high levels of different substances (that help to regulate blood pressure, called Renin and Aldosterone) in their blood. The investigators are also trying to determine if these babies have higher blood pressure than those babies born to mothers without high blood pressure or diabetes, during the first year of life. The investigators will measure your baby's blood pressure once a day for the first 4 days, at 1 week of age, and then once per week until your baby is discharged. The investigators will also measure the blood pressure after discharge at 4 and 10 months of age, either on the day of your baby's follow-up appointment in the Neonatal Follow-up Clinic or at a visit to our Outpatient Nephrology Clinic, both at CHEO.
