Dizzy or Blacking out -Update

Anyone else feel dizzy or that they might blackout?? It seems to hit me around the same time everyday for the past few days I know hormones can make you dizzy and lose balance but I feel like I may blackout sometimes; anyone else feel like this. I have a call into the doctor just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this.

Update: doctor says I might be drinking too much water and flushing out my electrolytes and to make sure I'm eating enough protein to control blood sugar. If it continues I will need to contact them again. Hoping it goes away being dizzy with two kids at home sucks.

  • This happens to me, usually when I'm in the shower and overheat. If it impacts your day or you don't feel safe driving you may want to call your doc.

    This happens to me too. I tested and started my iron again as I was dropping down a bit.

  • Pre-pregnancy I'd get light-headed/dizzy when I hadn't eaten in awhile - now I'm way more sensitive on that front; and I'll second @Noelbird on if I start overheat (which seems to happen soooooooo much easier/quicker).  

    But I'd think if you actually pass out, or its affecting daily activities, call your doc - otherwise mention it at your next appointment.

  • Thanks ladies I'm waiting on my doc to call me since I'm not hot and I eat constantly it just scared me a bit cause I was going up the stairs and I felt the floor come out of under me I had to sit on the steps and my two sons were a little freaked out for a minute. Thankfully my husband works within four mins of where we live so I called him until the spell passed. It's happened for three days so I called the doc hopefully it's nothing bad.
