It happened on the bus to work. I called my midwife both times and they were never really concerned, but I don't regret calling because it feels really scary!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-any-nurse-bees#post-1834423 Mon, 25 Aug 2014 10:11:12 +0000 whenoceansrise 1834423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsKRB: @Emsmems: @Kbee: @MrsF:<br /> Thanks ladies! I usually have low blood pressure, but I do think this could have been dehydration because I haven't been drinking as much water and last night our air conditioner went out so it was pretty hot. It just scared me! I am feeling much better now though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-any-nurse-bees#post-1834184 Mon, 25 Aug 2014 08:47:43 +0000 MrsF 1834184@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not an OB nurse, but I would be worried about either low or high blood pressure (although blood sugar could be a cause too). Glad you have a call in to your OB. I'm glad that you're feeling better but I would think they would want to see you at least to check your BP. Keep us posted! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-any-nurse-bees#post-1834172 Mon, 25 Aug 2014 08:43:14 +0000 Kbee 1834172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@whenoceansrise: Not a nurse, but wanted to say I'm sorry you are dealing with this today :sad: I hope it's nothing serious and that you feel better very soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-any-nurse-bees#post-1834168 Mon, 25 Aug 2014 08:40:15 +0000 Emsmems 1834168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not an OB nurse, but this happened to me many times in my second trimester. I would feel like I was going to pass out, always in the mornings. We think I was dehydrated from the night (even though I drank at night, it wasn't as much as in the daytime). So I'd drink a bunch of water in the morning. Eating didn't really help for me so it wasn't a blood sugar thing for me but it could be that too for you! If you're worried, you can always call your dr. I did and she told me to drink more water and put my feet up and come in if it didn't go away in a few hours. It always did. Your blood pressure could be low too. Do you normally run low at your appointments?</p> <p>Again, always call if you're worried. The worst they can say is it's normal and they aren't concerned! Good luck!</p> <p>Eta: I just reread your post and realized you said you left a message with the nurse! Sorry! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-any-nurse-bees#post-1834150 Mon, 25 Aug 2014 08:19:17 +0000 MrsKRB 1834150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not a nurse, I'm a dietitian - but I wonder if you had low blood sugar? I get the same way if I haven't eaten anything and my blood sugar ends up being very low. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/question-for-any-nurse-bees#post-1834098 Mon, 25 Aug 2014 07:38:22 +0000 whenoceansrise 1834098@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am 23 weeks pregnant and have felt pretty normal through the whole pregnancy. In the beginning I had a little nausea but never threw up and that went away at week 12. This morning I woke up and felt sick and I got very dizzy and was unable to see clearly. I even had trouble finding the door handle to the bathroom. I got very hot so I put some cold water on my forehead then I threw up twice even though I hadn't eaten anything yet. I've got a message in to my nurse and am just waiting for a call back. I am feeling much better now and am just wondering if I need to get into my doctors office today. </p>
