When i went to see my midwife i was taking everything in so didn't think to ask but i can't stop wondering now, when she was telling me about things to look out for there was the obvious like severe cramping, heavy bleeding etc and she also said to watch out for dizzyness, blurred vision and light spots and if i get this to go to hospital i was just wondering what it means, the light spots and blurred vision and why thats so dangerous, Doesn't help that with morning sickness comes dizzyness lol.

Thanks

i think the blurred vision and light spots are to do with high blood pressure and the risks with pre ecl', if you are want some more info, im sure she wouldnt mind you giving her a quick call and asking some more questions.

Euh? Those are symptoms of pre-eclampsia, but that is a typical third trimester problem (which can be dangerous), you don't need to be focussing on these things until you are past 24-26 or something weeks. So no sweat yet when you are feeling dizzy right now, I believe that is quite normal in the first trimester.

I think also they are symptoms of diabetes
