Got really lightheaded -

in 1st Trimester
but didn't pass out. Sure, scared me though.  I sat down and made DH rush me anything in the house with sugar.  After laying down for a few minutes under the fan I felt better.  Now I am just nervous.... do you think I could have harmed the LO? I am trying to eat more snack size foods just to put something in me, its just food is not appetizing right now.  Has this happend to anyone?

    I've been pretty dizzy and if I stand up too fast I see dark spots.  I think it's ok though. As long as you didn't fall, I don't see how you could have hurt LO.

    this happens to me when I forget to snack every couple of hours...it sucks in combo with the whole m/s thing. 

     I always carry cherrios or a granola bar in my purse, just in case.  Drink lots of water too...that seems to help me :)

    Yes, it's very common especially if you don't eat like you should during 1st tri. I know food doesn't sound good at times but you HAVE to eat. Try eating small "snacks" throughout the day instead of BIG meals. This should really help. Make sure you're getting your water intake as well.

    HTH. 

    Didn't mean to sound preachy but it happened to me so I hope this will help you out Big Smile
