head spinning whenever I even look down .....

I'm 25w today and have been quite breathless over the last few weeks... whenever I bend down, even just slightly, I can feel blood rushing to my head and I get quite dizzy - not so severe that I'm going to pass out or anything, but it's a bit disconcerting.

Is this actually anything to be concerned about? (dc3 btw)

Anyone have similar?

Low BP. Nothing to be done. It is a huge PITA.

I would get it checked out. It could be low BP...or high BP...or a warning sign of something more serious, like pre-eclampsia. Definitely worth mentioning to MW/GP.
