17 weeks and feeling dizzy!!

Okay everyone......... I need so help!!! Last night when I got home my feet were hurting SO bad and when I took off my shoes and socks I saw that my feet were swollen really bad. So I just sat on the couch and tried to just relax. Well when I walked up to bed I noticed that I started to get dizzy so I took it slow and got into bed. I tossed and turned all night and ended up giving myself a bad head ach because I was so stressed out because I was so tired but couldn’t sleep. Well this morning I woke up and slowly got out of bed and started to get ready for work. Well all of a sudden I stared to black out and so I sat down (in the bathroom) on the vent and had the cold AC air blowing on me. When I stated feeling better I finished getting ready for work. When I left I felt like I had no strength to even hold my arms up to drive. A 30 min drive to work took me about 45 min because I was so weak that I drove slow just in case. Well when I got to work (I sit at a desk most of the day) I sat down and felt like I was going to pass out again. Well one of the officers that work in my building walked by me and said that I looked like a GHOST. He took me in his office at took my blood pressure and it was normal. That’s was about 3 hours ago. Now sitting at my desk I just feel like I am drunk (a little dizzy and keep getting hot flashes) When I try to walk I feel like my legs are spaghetti. I was thinking to myself that maybe I was dehydrated so I have been drinking a lot of water today. Does that sound about right! My doc is out today and the nurse said I could come in to be seen by a different doctor but I don’t like seeing a doc that doesn’t know me or anything about this pregnancy or my last pregnancy. Has this happen to anyone else?

When I was about 15 weeks i had that happen to me all the time at work, it seemed if i stood up to fast one time it would make me feel like that all day long. My doctor said that it was completely normal, but I know it doesn't feel that way. he said that as long as my blood pressure was fine that it was nothing. He couldn't ever seem to tell me exactly why I was getting dissy spells which is frustrating. So, I tried looking it up online and still no luck all I can say is that for me it did pass!

Hope that you feel better!!!

Thanks i am hoping so. We will see how i feel tonight and tomorrow!

Thanks

That happened to meseveral times between week 14 and week 16. It freaked me out, but I found that drinking more water helped a lot and I managed to get past it. I think it makes it worse when you try to "push through it." You body is telling you something and if you aren't listening it will begin to scream.
