  • Yeahh maybe. Ive had a doctors appointment few days ago and they said my blood pressure is fine, im just scared it lead to something else. Im also scared of fainting at work or public
  • I had a lot of that early on. Usually tied to low blood sugar. Try drinking some juice when it happens.
  • it happened to my mom. she said drink orange juice & eat oranged, peanuts or peanut butter crackers. hope ot helps.
  • Thanks ill give that a try..
  • @LALALORREE I had it during my sixth week so my doc made me come in for. An us. I didn't got to work for three days because of it. Everything was fine she told me to have salt and plenty ofwater!
  • @whoaababy thanks! I had a dizzy spell at work the first time i noticed the pattern, making im work hrder then in suppose too. Next time it happens im going to see a doctor. In 15 weeks now :)
  • I've had 2 dizzy spells this week too. I'm 14 weeks. It's scary isn't it!! :( I think mine is from iron deficiency.
  • I've been having dizzy spells but only when I lay turned to one side but its vertigo.
  • It is a scart thing. I find it happens when i get over heated. Summer is around the corner and its freaking me out!
  • I was told its caused from dehydration. Drink more water sweety
  • Okay i will keep all these advices in mind!! :)
  • This happens to me. I faint & puke. I fainted while driving on the high way a couple days ago!!!!!!!!! Omg, scariest thing EVER!
  • Omg that is scary!!! Did you not feel yourself having symptoms before you fainted to like pull over? Thats so crazzy!
  • I had to go to the er last night it started as a weak feeling then a nauscious feeling then I could feel my heart race so fast and couldn't get a full breath, I'm 16 weeks 5 days, and they said it was dehydration
  • Before I was preggo I had a horrible dizzy spell and the world started going black like a photo negative almost. I may have been a little dehydrated, but it was really hot and a code red day for air quality. I have mild asthma, so I think I was having a weird attack because of the air quality and heat. I was walking my dogs and had to sit on the curb for a while to let it calm down. Then I had some water when I got back in.

    So my advice is to also consider the air quality on the days you have your spells.
  • What about headachs too? While i was at work i started getting one and its still pounding since 7!! I get headaches so badly quite often lately i feel like crying.
  • Check your blood pressure. I was having extreme dizzy spells from low blood pressure. Drink lots of uncaffeinated fluids.
  • I get them really bad I'm 18weeks tomorrow. Dr said I'm fine drink more water Lol. I dunno but ive also fainted or fell quite a bit...with last 2 this never happened but I'm fine so is baby
