My first scared moment...

I work as a dealer at a casino. Half graveyard shift half swings. Being 12 weeks pregnant and not everyone knows at work yet. So I had my very first episode of passing out while standing at my table game. My vision started to get blurry and all I can remember hearing was my floor supervisor telling me everything is ok. Next thing I know I am on the ground recovering from a black out and people trying to make sure I am conscious. Laid there for a good 5 minutes then off to the ER. They told me I could refuse it if I want but there was no choice in it. I had to think of my baby! They ran every test and my blood sugar is low and it's not safe for me not to eat for 8 hrs. I had planned on eating I promise because I was starting to feel strange before hand and was just waiting on my break. I have some of the best boss in world for tonight! If it wasn't for them trying to calm me I think I would have freaked out more than usual. So my fellow pregnant ladies... Please remember to eat healthy even if its just a tiny little snacks. I never wanna go through this ever again! It scared me to dead for the sake of my baby health and my own. I don't pray that any of you ever go through this. If it wasn't for my boss and co-workers I don't think I would have recover so calmly. And mind you there were other customers there. So please take very good care of yourself and your baby!!!

    Glad everything is ok! I'm like that too, eating small meals through out the day or I get really sick.

    There is no way my body would let me go 8 hours without eating. I can barely make it through the night without getting up for a snack. 

    Glad everything ended up okay!

    Glad everything is ok! I have to snack every couple of hours or I feel like I'm just dying for something to eat and then I get sick.

    I know this feeling well. I'm hypoglycemic to begin with and it's very difficult to manage during pregnancy. Even if I'm too nauseous to eat I still have to force it. Good luck. Carry lotsa snacks!!

    I'm the same way, even not being pregnant, so it's worse now. So happy that you and LO are doing okay though!
