Dizzy spells?

I'm 8 weeks and today had a dizzy/faint spell while sitting where I really thought I might pass out! Has this happened to anyone else? Several days ago I got dizzy for a few seconds while walking, but today was far worse.

Re: Dizzy spells?

  • I definitely have had my share of dizzy spells. It's pretty normal..although if u pass out, call ur doc! Drinking a lot of water and eating small meals throughout the day helps too

  • I get them, but it seems to be either days that I'm having a hard time keeping water/food down or early in the day when I haven't gotten enough water yet.

    Yep, I've started getting them here lately, and I had them all through my last pregnancy, too. As someone else said, keeping food and water in you tends to help. Last time, I had to keep a little snack bag with me for when those moments hit.

  • Yes. With this pregnancy especially. I would call your doctor though and let them know this happening. Also if you start feeling like you might go out, get to the ground as soon as possible so you don't fall and hurt yourself when/if you faint.

  • Happened today as I was standing up from my desk at work. I thought I was going to blackout. I wonder what causes this???

  • It just happened again! Earlier I had been finished eating about 5 minutes when I got so dizzy. Now we went to dinner and while we were in the car hubs was driving I got severely dizzy again. Had been finished eating about 10 minutes. Luckily we go for ultrasound and Dr. appointment tomorrow so I'll make sure to bring it up. This pregnancy stuff is freaky! :
  • Happened to me today too!! This is the second time but It made me tell my boss sooner than I wanted cause I thought I was going to pass out... Glad I'm not the only one this happens too! Very scary!
  • Dizzy spells were one of my first symptoms.  I have them less often now, {7 weeks and 6 days} I found that eating small meals all day really helps me out!
