| Is this normal I always feel faint and a little dizzy.. Its hard to explain i hope somebody knows what i mean! When im sitting down i just feel like my head is spinning although i dont have an actual headache.. I keep drinking loads because it feels like i havnt had a drink for hours when i have but doesnt make a difference.
I feel worse today though. My legs feel really wobbly when i get up and walk.
Is this normal.. Im sure im drinking enough and all that. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Have you been eating enough? i get this sometimes where i feel a little weak.
You should also get you urine tested as it may be a water infection...i had a urine infection and was feeling dizzy and faint all the time.  | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | Sounds like low blood pressure... I get it too. You really need to make sure you eat enough, I have a problem with that sometimes too. I eat alot, and always have because im an actuve person, but you have to try and eat more then you think is possible, growing a baby burns alot of calories. |

| Have you had your bloods taken recently? Just wandered what your haemoglobin was, if its low that can cause low blood pressure and a dizzy sensation. (this means your anaemic) try to eat foods with lots of iron in that may help x |

| It is possible im not eating enough. I just never have room for food anymore i feel full up after one sandwich!! Also on my notes i noticed my blood pressure has been getting lower and lower each time by quite abit but cant be much to worry about because MW hasnt said anything but maybe that is why i feel like this. I will tell my midwife next time i see her. |

| I haven't heard anything back when I had mine done at 32 weeks either, seems like it was longer than a week and a bit ago I had them done though!
I always thought I could be aneamic espec as I am very pale too.
Might just be baby on some nerves too? |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I nearly passed out twice when i was about 28/29 weeks pregnant. I started to feel a bit sick and then went all hot and sweaty and went all dizzy but id eaten and id ben drinking plenty of fluids. I told this to the midwife and she didnt really know what it was.
But lately if i havent eaten for a couple of hours i start to feel all light headed and dizzy, my legs feel wobbley and i start shaking. I have to eat every few hours.
I had some porridge at about 8.30 thi morning, then by 1pm i started to feel like above. Its strange. |
