    Should I get checked or normal dizziness?

    Hey all,

    Me again to bug you all with silly questions lol. I had protected DTD on saturday (as I was away and didn't want to set off labor so far from my hosp of choice). Anyways ended up bleeding a lot, several pad fulls of bright red blood like a full on period bleed and had some cramping.

    Went to a hospital and got monitored and all was well and got told to go home and if it was still bright red bleeding the next day to come back. Next day went to pad fulls of brown and then stopped by yesterday. Just wondering since my bleed I've been having a lot of dizzy spells, not passing out or falling just the need to sit there and then before I do fall etc. I feel really light headed and sick and randomly whack into walls lol, it's very elegant.

    My blood pressure when I was almost asleep (had to wait hours for a dr) was 130/80, it's usually 100/60. Should I go and get checked out or ring the hospital and ask? I'm not bleeding anymore but I'm still getting the dizzy attacks. Is it normal or something more sinister? They said that Ryan was a happy little bubby and had an excellent HB etc and all was well, just I was bleeding all over the place lol

    I would suggest going to get checked. If you don't feel 'right' and your BP is higher than usual then that is a good enough reason just to get the reassurance that all is well.

    Take care

    For peace of mind I'd go and see your OB or M/W to be sure.
