WHAT DO I DO!!??!?

Question

I have been extremely light headed and dizzy for the last week and if go so bad my boss was telling me that if I needed to take a 30 minute “15 minute” break to do so. Because I feel like the world around me is spinning. I am almost 20 weeks pregnant eat regularly (at least a snack every 2 hours), and I am currently sick with a sore throat and runny nose. Idk if any of these correlate with each other. But I’m a little worried about the light headedness.

Answer

Earlier last week I was having that problem and i called my doctor crying because i'm overly emotional and she responded with 'it's normal. Low blood pressure affects a lot of pregnang women. Its something that you just have to deal with' in a kind of snappy tone. So now on days when I wake up dizzy as hell I've worked out something with my boss to find a replacement. Thank god theyre so flexible where I work.

Answer

Talk to your ob especially if you are coming down sick. Its flu season and flu is very very bad for pregnant women. You can also make an appointment with your primary physician to see what is making you feel sick so far as the sore throat and runny nose. Also are you drinking enough water or other things (juice, milk, flavored water, etc...).

Answer

In not an expert but I know from my experience it could be low blood pressure. I've been borderline  for low pressure since I was 13. Quick question to ask your ob.

Answer

When I was sick and congested I was VERY lightheaded. It passed after that but it was worse during pregnancy.
