2nd Trimester

Passing out, 18 weeks

Has anyone experienced passing out while pregnant? I'm 18 weeks today and since Friday I have passed out 4 times. I went to the hospital the first time and they assumed that it was due to low blood sugar but since I had done things to get my blood sugar back up they couldn't say for sure. Also that I was a little dehydrated.. Even though I've been dehydrated the entire time, I have hyperemesis gravedium. I also have placenta previa which has caused multiple bleeding episodes. Im concerned most about the passing out though. All 3 times that it Happened this weekend (after I knew what the problem was) I had been doing all the things I've been told and researched to do to keep my blood sugar up.

  • Go to your doctor. He is going to be able to help out more than the er

  • My dr sent me to the er, he was out of the office and won't be returning until next week.
  • Darn that is a reason to not see him! :) from what I've heard it could be normal in pregnancy but it could also be signs of something worse going on. It could be anything that they told you or it could be low blood pressure. If it gets worse I would see if you can see an on call doctor in your office.
  • I get dizzy and faint from low blood pressure now. I was told to increase my sodium intake.
