Lightheaded

Cris

I’m 27 weeks tomorrow and If I stand for too long, I get really lightheaded. I’ve managed to sit down while I start to black out so I haven’t fainted yet but I’ve been close.

What scares me is that it happens at work too where I’m on my feet my whole shift. My doctor dismissed it as being normal because the baby is cutting off some sort of blood line that makes me lightheaded and wants me to just take more breaks at work but I can’t even stand for more then 10 minutes before feeling dizzy.

Anybody else have actual remedies? I don’t want to stop working or not be able to go out again because of it

My iron is fine and I don’t have any other symptoms like preeclampsia. It’s just where the baby is positioned
