Dizziness

I woke up last night with extreme dizziness, could barely get to the bathroom-I passed it off as being sleepy.
Woke up with it this morning too and it hasn't settled. I've eaten/drank water/had a lie down. I've had a relaxed Sunday yet feel rubbish!
I still feel dizzy, nauseous and pressure at the front of my head/behind my eyes. Confused

I'm 32 weeks pregnant-is this normal for this stage? Should I be worried or just rest and hope it will settle?

I'd be inclined to call the labour ward to see if they are concerned about the possibility of preeclampsia.

Went in got checked out and BP etc was fine, was told it's due to exhaustion and I need to take it easy Blush easier said than done!
I'm still a bit worried though as my BP had increased from 90/60 to 110/85 since Wednesday. This is the highest it's Ever been for me. Doctor didn't seem to concerned so don't know if I'm worrying about nothing now.
