could be low blood pressure which is normal in early pregnancy..or anemic..you will have it bloods done at ur booking scan to check both x

If you are concerned, go see your GP as soon as possible. Better to be safe than sorry x

Hi,

I posted a similar question a week or so ago - you'll find lots of useful responses if you scroll back a couple of pages of questions :-) To answer your question, yes it's totally normal and almost certainly nothing to worry about. I went to see my midwife after I fainted a couple of times and she checked that my blood pressure hadn't dropped and I hadn't developed gestational diabetes (I'd recently had blood results that ruled out anaemia).

Make an appt with your GP or midwife to double check but try not to worry - be sure to eat something every couple of hours, drink lots and stand up slowly!

Take care x

when I was between 8/9 weeks I had a spell of feeling extremely dizzy specially when I laid down or if I got up too quick from somewhere, it made me feel quite sick but I just made sure that I drank lots and if I felt dizzy just sit somewhere or make sure ur not near anything that if u fall u will hurt urself, everyone I know that has been pregnant says they have experienced it at some point so I believe it is common in early pregnancy. x

Im roughly 11wks this week & i also feel a Lil dizzy at times. Im not sure if its a mixture of my blood pressure & hormones or slight change in diet.

Just take care of yourself a bit more. If i feel dizzy when i get up i just sit back down for a few seconds & take a deep breath.

I felt dizzy and tired most of my first trimester - growing babies from eggs is surely a much tiring task than making babies ;)

Maybe take a lot of water and if possible little short naps in the day !

So I rang my midwife and she said its normal it is to do with the extra blood coming through my body but called me in to check my blood pressue and take my bloods and they r both fine she said if I do actually faint continuously or it gets seriously worse then go to a+e but it seems to have calmed down its my bday and ive done nothing but sit on my bum too scared to stand up lol thanks for all the replys girls really helped :)) xx
