Hi
I am 28 weeks and this morning i woke up feeling very dizzy and woozy. I just want to lay down and sleep!
Bp has been fine in all my check ups and have another next week inc getting anti d/bloods etc.
Just wondering if this is a normal symptom? I did not experience this with my 2 ds.

I've had this three times now. I'm 25 weeks and it's a weird feeling where I have had no option but to lie down and sleep. First time I was at my desk at work and wanted to curl under it! This morning it happened again before I left for work so my boss kindly told me I could work from home or I don't know how I'd have driven in!
When it first happened, about a month ago, I rang the midwife and she said it was perfectly normal and is likely to be down to my blood being diverted to things like digesting food (while most of it cares for the baby) and I will feel a bit dizzy. She said if it continued then to go and see doctor, but it doesn't last long when it happens.
My BP has always been normal at my appointments and it does go away so I'm taking it to be just another of those annoying pregnancy things. I hope!
