Dizziness!!!):
Okay so I'm 28W3D pregnant and I've been feeling awful the past week.
On Friday my in laws came down and took us to dinner and I was fine besides a major headache but half way through dinner I started getting neausous, and we went back to the hotel and I felt like passing out so I sat down and eventually felt normal.
On Saturday (my baby shower) I was tired from doing so much for the past week, and I was neauouse and had a major headache and felt like passing out but I dealt with it and the baby shower was good.
On Sunday, I started getting dizzy and was so sick I couldn't eat anything or drink anything and slept most the day because I didn't feel good.
On Monday I called my doctor and he said it might be allergies since my blood pressure wasn't up at the moment, and sent me home and told me to take some medications he reccomened. I bought them and went home, still dizzy and neauouse and a horrible headache. I take the medicine about 10PM.
On Tuesday (about 1AM) I wake up and am so dizzy I can't walk and I try (stupidly I may add) to go to the bathroom and I fall on my wife (she's a heavy sleeper and I didn't hit my belly) and then kind of crawl to the bathroom then back to bed, and I go back to sleep, and I wake up at 3:30 and wake her up and ask for some water cause i couldn't walk to get it and she got me some, and I asked for a bowl cause I felt like throwing up, and she brought me one and I threw up so much. She then walks out of the room so she doesn't throw up and when I'm finished she cleans up everything and brings me a new bowl, and I continue to throw up 4 more times. Then about 5AM, after several stumbling trips to the bathroom she decides I need to go to the hospital, I stop fighting her and agree. So we get ready, her helping me get dressed and scoot down the stairs on my butt and helping me walk to the car, we head to the hospital with me throwing up the whole way. We finally get there and they take me to L&D and they're trying to hook up baby to moniters and I'm throwing up the whole time. The doc comes in and gets blood work and an IV started and some zofran for neausea so I can stop throwing up. I eventually stop throwing up and baby is fine so they unhook the moniters and do a ultrasound on my liver cause I had some increased inzymes (wrong spelling probably) and she was worried about that, but it was normal. She told me my iron is low but with my prenatal it will be okay and not cause problems. She didn't know why I was so dizzy though. They gave me a medicine to help with the dizziness and it helped a little but not much and she said since baby was fine and I could eat again I could go home. So we go home and go to sleep. Sleep all day until the next morning.
On wensday morning we wake up and we lay in bed a while cause I was dizzy and my wife's back hurt, and then we watch some Netflix, and I take a nap, well I slept for like 5 hours. I'm still super dizzy but I can stumble to the bathroom. I'm not supposed to be driving or going down stairs. So I'm pretty much confined to our apartment since it's upstairs.
But my whole point was, has any other mom's had this and it just be normal pregnancy stuff?
