During my c section with DS (i was awake with a spinal) as i was going in the aneithitist (sp??) mentioned that if i feel light headed or anything to tell him as some people suffer low bp during the procedure. He explained that they had something to give me if this happened (sorry not sure what it was) My bp has always been on the low side so i half joked and said to the guy- you might want to have that ready to go coz i will probably need it he said no worries- its his job to keep an eye on my bp and he said he will watch it closely...

not long into the c section- sure enough i started to feel funny- i looked up to him and managed to say "i think its time for that stuff...." he replied "your right on target love, i am already putting it in your drip.."

Again- i am sorry i still to this day have no idea what it was they gave me, but whatever it was it worked!! I did still feel a bit funny afterwards, but they were onto it, so i think you are safe to know that they are aware this happens and there is something they can give you to help it. Even in our interview a week before i dont remember if my bp was mentioned and thats why they had the "magic stuff" there- but i know i always say my bp is on the low side if anything, so wether they knew this from my interview or if they have it there just in case for anyone i dont know- i am assuming its something they have ready in the room anyway.

God luck!!!
