I'm really worried..

[ElleJay]

I'm out and about at the moment, doing stuff for the house we're building, and i keep getting dizzy.. So dizzy to the point that i want to sit down and just throw up. And i'm so worried that there is something wrong with bub so worried than each time i think about it, i just cry. I'm 16wk5d today and it's been going on since 16wk2d

Try not to worry LJ, with my first everytime I stood up for ling I got light headed and felt sick and if I didnt sit down it was like I was going to pass out. It was an everyday experience. You would be getting more blood flow going thru too especially as the placenta starts taking over the pgcy. Hang in there honey, you will be fine. hugs If you get too worried go and see your Dr, he/she may want to check your BP etc. Hugs

I felt like that with my second pg - turns out I was iron deficient. Maybe pay a visit to your GP, explain your symptoms and ask for a blood test to check your iron levels.

I hope you are feeling better soon - it is not a nice feeling

Personally I think it is probably just your body trying to say 'take it easy - slow down'. Even everyday things can be tiring so listen to your body & rest up. If it gets worse or persists then see your Ob.

hun there is no harm going to the Drs & getting checked. Even if its only to put your mind at ease.
I'm pretty sure its all normal though.
Thinking of you

PS Take it easy!!!!

thanks all. Little update, tried calling the dr and fully booked until next wednesday (surely that many people can't be sick!) i've got work tonight but there's no way i'd wanna go if i felt like that. I think my body is telling me to take it easy as i've been running around and stressing myself out too much at work.

Enjoy the night off! You do deserve it. Let us know how you go .

Liz - don't go to work, even if you feel better in an hour or so. Rest up on the lounge with your feet up. If you still feel giddy after 24hrs rest call and DEMAND an appointment. Geez, I can't believe some people will expect a pregnant woman to wait a week for an appointment. **Big Hugs**

:yeahthat:
I agree with AJC . I think pregnant women are more important than someone with a head cold. Demand an appointment

LJ if your worried go and see your Dr. Make sure your taking it easy.

[Maruschke]

LJ I think this is common. If it is stressing you, then maybe go and see the Doc, if anything just for reassurance? And take it easy! You are growing your forever bubble, and that takes its toll on your body. I'll be lurking to see how you go.

I still have dizzy spells and for me its mostly due to low blood pressure. Its some thing Ive always had.Also my iron was low. Maybe try putting some lifesavers or something similar in your bag ,just to give your blood sugars a boost till you can get something more nutritional to eat.

Sweet sounds like low iron to me get it checked out hun xxx
