Definitely call your doctor. It was probably low blood sugar but my anemia kicked in in the 2nd trimester so it could be that too.

I'd call your OB. If you were dizzy I'd say it was orthostatic hypertension, which I actually just experienced this week and talked to my OB about. Basically he said that it's your blood pooling in the bottom half of your body, and it can cause dizziness, nausea, fatigue, and vomiting (all of which I had in a very mild form).

I woke up and just felt off balance, but as the morning progressed I got slightly dizzy, slightly nauseated and eventually vomited. I wasn't so dizzy I was afraid of fainting, and I knew it wasn't low blood sugar because I had eaten breakfast and it had gotten worse after breakfast. My OB told me that I should sit down and/or lie down and rest until I feel better, and make sure to drink a ton of water because dehydration can definitely contribute.

I only mention this because my dizziness wasn't like the room was spinning, more like I just couldn't keep my balance.

I would guess low blood sugar. Call your OB to be safe. Glad you are feeling better. Keep us updated. 22 weeks! You are moving along!

@bluestriped bee: For me personally diabetes felt like a tingle (slight buzzing like a leg that fell asleep is waking up but way milder than that and your whole body feeling that) when I had high blood sugar, so not really a drunk feeling. I hope it's not GD! Good luck! I hope this is nothing.
