I was really dizzy this morning and it is only getting slowly better. It felt like I had been spinning around and then had stopped, only all I did was get in the shower! Shoudl I be worried or is this normal? Should I call my midwife? I have never been dizzy before, not even when I wasnt pregnant...? ------------- Mrs Frantic Baby Maddisyn born 28 Sept 2006 http://lilypie.com">

I've had lots of dizzy and fainting spells during pregnancy. It's not 'normal' per se - but it is common. Just try and rest up - lying on your left side helps blood flow resume to normal. Also, have some OJ or some other sweet juice. ------------- Joshua Hadynn - Born 3 May 2006 |

it could be your blood pressure mrs frantic. mine has been consistantly low throughout my pregnancy and i often have quite sickening dizzy spells in the mornings. also make sure you are getting enough to drink. its surprising how much extra we need when we're growing a baby! i fainted a couple of times in my last pregnancy from dehydration even though i carried a water bottle everywhere.
check with your midwife though, they do like to keep an eye on your bp. ------------- Mel, Mummy to E: 6, B: 4 and:
