lightheaded???

Hey I'm just wondering if anyone feels light headed when your not moving?... it seems like I am sitting still and it will come out of no where...?

I get it randomly throughout the day. Drink lots of water and make sure you keep crackers or something to snack on. I've heard it's totally normal. I stand all day at work so sitting for 5 min here and there helps me.

Sitting is fine for me but I've had a few moments when standing still for any length of time.

Make sure you drink plenty of water! My doctor also told me to eat a piece of candy if I start to feel too lightheaded. I'm keeping Lifesavers in my desk and they seem to help!

My doctor said to make sure I'm getting enough protein because I was having this issue

Everyday. At my appointment last Friday my MW told me dizziness and fainting are all the joys of pregnancy, but to make sure I was eating enough just to be sure. I wouldn't worry too much; just make sure you are drinking plenty of water and eating enough throughout the day. Hope you feel better!

Haven't yet, but last pregnancy my 2nd trimester was filled with faintness and actual fainting.  Standing still would always bring it on.  My MW told me it was normal for some women.  I have low BP so that was the culprit... it just got lower with pregnancy.
