So I believe I am about 9 to 10 weeks. I was on the couch watching TV, and I got up, walked to my bedroom with my laptop, and had the urge to use the restroom. As I sat down, I got extremely lightheaded and dizzy. I got "cold sweats" and just felt like I was going to throw up, along with pretty bad stomach cramps. My mouth got very dry as well. This is my first pregnancy, so I dont really know what all accompanies "morning sickness" (its 11:05PM right now, this happened about 20 minutes ago). Has anyone else experienced this? Is this just normal nausea or maybe something different? I havent been to a doctor yet because my insurance hasnt kicked in yet for my new job. Any suggestions/feedback would be very comforting!! Thanks!

Re: Just had a horrible experience...Anyone else?
Dr told me the medical term for this - she told me it's typical for early pg women to get dizzy - just take it easy standing up and drink more water.
are you taking prenatals? ask your Dr whether you'd benefit from taking extra iron. when i was anemic (low iron) i was getting very dizzy
