This is my 2nd pregnancy but today I feel very light headed and hot. I'm sitting here at my desk and feel like I'm almost in a twighlight state. Very odd.
I've been keeping up with my meals and snacking about every 2 hours but can't shake this feeling. Not sure if I should call OB. Anyone else feeling this way?
I know each pregnancy is different but I didn't feel this way with DD1.
Re: Light headed and hot
Are you drinking enough water?
I have definitely been a lot more lightheaded this pregnancy. I have fainted twice. It is pretty normal to be feeling lightheaded/have hot flashes in early pregnancy though. I really would just chug some water and try not to worry about it. Your body is working really hard on increasing your blood supply, and your hormones are fluctuating like crazy.

A stowaway on board!
One of my earliest symptoms was hot flashes, except my body was freezing. I would blanch from my cheeks down to my chest. I've gotten light-headed a few times. Now that I think about it, once I upped my water intake to about 100 oz, I haven't experienced this since.
