I fainted :(

Thanks Ang and ZF. I'm getting so relieved reading these replies, and have passed them on to DH. He's feeling a bit calmer about it now and has taken to calling me Drop Bear lol.

ZF I'm not exactly small either, and I'm still amazed he managed to get me out shower and around the corner onto the floor! That's seriously the first thing I thought as I started coming back!

Makes you wonder doesn't it, i'm nearly 6ft and a big build and this guy was prob just shorter than me.. quick thinking.
Your DH sounds like he did a great job for him.

You definately aren't alone. I managed to faint in Big W at 24 weeks. I then threw up in a waste bin. I was so, so embarrassed but the ladies in the photo lab were lovely and helped me til I felt better. I hope you make it through the rest of your pregnancy with no more fainting!

Yep, I've been fainty faint faint all the way through, but especially in the first tri. It's your body's need for blood rapidly increasing and your blood pressure drops as a result. I found that drinking Powerade really helps, and, yeah, lay off the hot showers a bit! Will be easier as summer comes up

Thanks Marni & Audax. Re: vomiting, apparently as I came to I started retching. I don't remember that bit but it scared DH. He certainly did do a good job!! Apparently the dog was there too and kept nudging my face with his nose lol.

Thanks for the tip re Powerade Audax, I'll give that a go!
