I'm baaaccck!

Well we have moved into our new beautiful house and finally have the Internet back on so I can communicate again! I really missed being on Belly Belly as I have had a few questions and was unable to have them answered the way I wanted! So good to be back!

I've entered the third trimested now which has gone quite quickly! I have a scan in 2 weeks to check babies size as they were slightly concerned about it being a bit small but seriously after this week if I am having a small baby then you I will climb Mt Everest - I have grown sooooo much this week!!! Either baby has grown or I've eaten too many frozen marsbars!

Also last night I had a near-fainting spell! So werid. I was at a party, having the tineiest champagne with OJ which I didn't finish when I felt all hot, very very dizzy and unfocussed and sort of said to a friend, "I feel sick!". They sat me down and gave me water and I recovered quite quickly but felt strange for about 1 hour. I went to docs to have blood pressure checked and all was fine so I am okay. Has this ever happened to anyone else? Doc sai cause I was standing in one position but it was only for about 5 minutes!

Anyway good to be back again!

Hi welcome back Jordie!

I had something that sounds similar or the same happen to me during the later stages of my pregnancy. My blood pressure was always normal and my doc said the symptoms and experiences I described didn't fit any known pattern for anything, including blood pressure problems. I would get all hot, feel sick, feel like I was going to faint, had difficulty focusing etc. It would last about 5-10mins. I never pinned down what brought it on - it happened at work, at home, in the morning, in the evening, while standing, while sitting etc. Still don't know. Take care though and get yourself checked if it keeps happening.

Welcome back.
I hope the move to your new house wasn't too stressful.

Good luck with your upcoming scan.

cant believe u r in 3rd tri already.....tis flown.....welcome back !!!

welcome back Jordie!!! Oh wow! 3rd tri already?!! amazing! how beautiful!

i had this happen when we were at a book launch. it was when i was around 30-32 weeks (cannae remember exactly) and all of a sudden i got really really really hot (as in i wanted to rip my clothes off) and my legs started to shake and my head really went spinny. luckily there was a grand piano there and someone raced and got a chair (i hadnt said anything cause i was too focused on trying to stay upright, but luckily someone realised that i was knackered LOL!).

i had to sit for the rest of the time and after a bit the dizziness lessened. but i went home and slept afterwards...
