I know that it's quite common to have the odd dizzy spell when you're pregnant and i get them when i stand up too quickly. But lately I've been feeling extremely lightheaded when I'm in the shower. I've started to crouch down when washing and standing up briefly to rinse and I make sure that I've eaten beforehand. Has anyone else had this problem or isit just me??

Have you had your bloods checked recently? You could be low in something. Hope it gets better for you soon x

I think it's quite normal. I get it quite often too. Sometimes I walk around feeling like I'm going to faint for ages.

If eating doesn't help it then it's most likey low blood pressure or you're lacking in iron. Ask a doctor or midwife next time you see one.

Try not to worry but know your limits and sit or lay down when you need to. Better than falling down!

I've had the odd dizzy spell, but it usually happens when I'm tired. I would double check with the doctor.
