dizzy when i stand up

kjo83

Hey I'm 6 weeks and starting last night I get dizzy/headspins when I get up... it kinda even feels like I'm high or something... also have real achy eyeballs... sounds weird I know.... anyone have the same?

I did first trimester and I read there's so much blood volume that when your blood vessels constrict you feel dizzy try to get up slowly allowing the blood to distribute to your lower body

Try and get up slow and hang on to something when u do. It should soon go away. If it gets worse tho call ur ob or go to the er

I had this before I got pregnant. Its something to do with blood pressure.

@VictoriaB is it high blood pressure?? Cuz I have the same thing

@Kjo83 Omgosh I thought I was the only who eyeballs felt achy

VictoriaB

@VictoriaB I don't have anything wrong with my blood pressure

Low blood pressure causes this to happen. Just get up very slowly, drink plenty of fluids, and you should be ok.

I usually don't. Just when I first wake up or once I tried fasting to see what the big deal was and after 4 days, I would get dizzy every time I stood up.

Thnks ladies... could be low blood pressure as I used to be prone to this.. I have told only 1 colleague just in case I did faint they would know y. Have a big day tomorrow flying interstate for the day... hate flying at the best of times... hope it doesn't counteract with my dizziness...
