Low BP?

[MummaSue]

Hey guys,

I've got really low BP at the moment (80/50), to the point that I've had to lie down for most of the weekend as I'm so dizzy and am worried am going to fall over.

My Dr isn't concerned - she just says that I should be careful not to injure myself if I do fall over.

Anyone else had this and if so, did it resolve itself? I can't lie down tomorrow, I have to be at work!!

Thanks

Yes, I had it a couple of times in my last pg. Your Dr is right, you don't need to worry about it. But seriously think about staying home from work if you're not feeling better, you don't want to keel over while you're there! In the meantime, drink lots of water, it will help, to a certain extent.

Thanks Janie. I was reading that lots of water helps. That is a struggle for me because my "morning" sickness is really bad and even water turns my stomach - but I'm just drinking anyway LOL.

Thanks for a quick reply!!

I totally get that! I am struggling big time to drink any water at all ATM. I normally drink 2 litres a day, but not when I'm pg YUCK!
