Fainting?

Question

Have any of you ladies had problems with fainting or almost fainting during your second trimester? I am 99% sure I'm eating enough (I eat every time I'm hungry), and I tried wearing compression socks but didn't notice a difference. I'm getting tested for diabetes Friday but eat pretty healthy so I'm not sure how the results will come back (I didn't have diabetes pre-pregnancy).

Have you experienced this??

Answer

I had this problem with my first. I actually fainted in Walmart one day with my mom. Even though she caught me and I didn't hit my head, I didn't know my name, age, that I was pregnant nothing. The ambulance had to come get me. They linked to my blood sugar. Though in not diabetic and was never diagnosed with gestational diabetes. The way by body and baby we're handling my sugar intake somewhere it was going wrong. I can't remember exactly what they said it's been 5 years :) but a couple times in my 3rd trimester it was cause she was laying on a nerve in my back. I'd go to the office and they would help me move her off of it.

Answer

No. I haven't, but how is your blood pressure? Mine was super low for quite awhile and they warned me to be cautious against dizzy spells and fainting,
