I'm 7+6 weeks I've fainted twice. I rang my doctors and she said its common during pregnancy.

Fainting can be common, but the OP also fell down the stairs.

Sorry I never made myself clear first time i fainted I went down the stairs, really hurt my left foot, thankfully didn't hurt my head. My doctor said as long as I felt okay. To rest up, lie down if I felt light headed, eat and drink often and to not stand too quickly.

I'd ring your doctor and discuss it with them. Really hope you are okay.

I rang my gp surgery told me to rest but to go to a+e if I feel any worse. So I think its an early night for me little dude then a nice bath and chill hopefully I feel abit better then
