Fainted at 17 weeks
I guess I’m having a rough pregnancy after all...
I fainted today while I went to the mall. It was the strangest feeling.
I was feeling great and energetic throughout the day and decided to run to the mall quickly after leaving work.
Out of nowhere, things started to appear dark and foggy, I felt so hot that I removed my scarf and unzipped my coat. I also felt so lightheaded, dizzy and nauseous, everything started spinning... I walked into a pretzel shop to ask for a cup of water and all of a sudden, I just blacked out, fainted... I don’t know how I fell but when I woke up I was surrounded by people and police officers staring at me, asking if I’m ok, to state the date, my name and age...
I woke up with bad headache and a big bump on my forehead. I don’t know how long I was on the ground for... EMS came and took me to hospital in an ambulance.
So far my baby is fine and heart rate is normal. I got to see him move around in sonogram. (These little babies are stronger than we think). Thank goodness cause that was my main concern. But as for me my blood sugar levels are low and I’m extremely dehydrated :(
Any other moms been through this ? Fainted or dizzy spells ?
