Earlier this morning I got really dizzy - room spinning dizzy. But the thing is I was sitting down at the time. Since then I've been slightly dizzy (that light-headed, heavy limbs kind of dizzy) on and off. And every now and then I feel like crying. I'm also really aware of my heartbeat/pulse. It doesn't seem to be quicker than normal (not that I can focus long enough to time it) just harder, if that makes sense.
Right now I feel sluggish and heavy and typing feels like an effort. I have been getting lots of kicks the last hour so I know bubs is okay. I just don't like feelling like this.
Actually, the last time I remember feeling like this was when I first started taking ADs.
I have had that, pretty much how you have described too. I think the dizziness has something to do with blood pressure.
The best advice I can offer is to go and get checked out. You are obviously concerned and your gut feeling is that something is not quite right so best pack yourself up and head to your hossy and get checked by the MW's.
Better to be told its nothing than to not act and it be something that might have been preventable x
I had low bp with dd and felt like that A LOT. if you are worried call your dr.
I've also had panic attacks and when I had my first one it felt the same as you described till finally I convinced myself something was very wrong and I was going to pass out.
Try focussing on breathing. Thinking about your belly going up and down with each breathe, surfing a wave as you breathe out. Lay down and close your eyes for a minute, I find it helps a lot.
Even to sit down and get my mind to do what I want it to I name 5 things I can hear, 5 things I can smell and 5 things I can feel........ Sounds strange but it makes your mind focus on something else. And trains you to take control
If it doesn't eat something salty, if it is lbp this will rise it.
I knew you'd all tell me to get checked out. I know I should. Except DH is about to leave from work and I don't think I should drive. Will try and page my mw at least.
Agree with the other girls. Please have it looked at. Could be possible bp issues or also low blood sugar/dehydration. Try eating a handfulof jellybeans/teaspoon honey or sugar and have a glass of water. I get it when my blood sugar is extremely low.Sit down with your head between your knees. Hope all is well Please let us know how you go.
Something just doesn't feel right
