Question

Answer 1

i fainted loads with my little boy but i had really bad sickness and low blood sugars.

You need to sit/lie down when you feel you are going to faint....i had to do it in the middle of the supermarket!!

Meantion it to your midwife and dont worry, its a common problem but she can check you over and advise the best things to do!

Answer 2

I had to eat every 2 hours during month 2 and 3 to keep from feeling that way.

Answer 3

all the blood is rushing from your head....causing the fainting feeling...when it starts either try and keep moving, sit, or lay down. all of these work for me.

Answer 4

most pregnant women need a lot of iron

but they lack it during their pregnancy.

i think thats whats happening to you

your so low that you feel all flushed

and just have to faint.

if your llooking very pale lately

then this could be the case

also look for brittle hair and nail

Answer 5

You may be going through a slight case of vertigo. I used to be that way when I was pregnant. and as the pregnancy progressed, it got worse. It got to the point I could just sit or stand up,and it would feel like the room was spinning. Don't want to scare you off, but sometimes it happens.

Answer 6

It sounds like low blood sugar.  Eat more.  Try keeping some fruit with you at all times.  We pregnant folks can't just eat 3 meals a day and expect to stay upright....you need some nourishment inbetween meals.  Try eating smaller more frequent meals.

Answer 7

could be any number of things but probbally low blood sugar. Did you have your  jestational diabetes test yet you could have it. Talk to your doctor about it.  It more frequently and walk with snacks
