Lightheaded, Dizzy, Headaches

Jen

I have been light headed, dizzy, mild headaches, my feet are swollen and I just have been feeling SO off for the past 5(ish) days. My blood pressure has been 106/52. Also my little peanuts hasn’t been moving very much the past 2 days, which is very unusual! He usually is moving 24/7, very big, hard kicks and turns. His heart rate was also almost 150 today.

Sounds like you need to call your physician to get seen.

I had an appointment today, and expressed how I was feeling. She told me to drink black coffee and wear compression socks. 😳😩

UPDATE: They said I don’t need to be seen, limit my carb intake, up my protein intake, water, and compression socks. If that doesn’t help, THEN go to labor and delivery for testing.

Your blood pressure is low but shouldn’t be making you feel that way solely. I would get checked out if you can

I had an appointment today, and was told to drink black coffee and wear compression socks. I saw an assistant- as my regular doctor was busy.

Blood pressure is fine but everything else you named sound like you could be developing pre eclampsia. I am a nurse but because I haven’t seen u don’t take my word just get to ER ASAP if u can’t get to doctor today. Many women are fine with it just get to doctor. They may induce your labor too!

You’re pregnant so nausea is common. The other things you named are the red lights. I hope u feel better!

The 52 is a lil low I seen 62 for whatever reason but slightly low but that’s not even the alarming part to me because last trimester is when your blood pressure generally drops low n e way.
