Pregnancy Collapses/Faints

Hello all,

Wondering if anyone else has had these...
Currently at 31 weeks.

I've been having regular 'faints' or collapses the whole time. sometimes I go a couple of weeks and other times I have them everyday, if not twice a day. What happens is I start to feel really hot, my breathing becomes laboured, heart races I get dizzier and dizzier and loose all strength, go grey and then I just drop.

They thought it was low BP but it's fine - plus its happening when I'm sitting down, which apparently isnt BP.

Recently it came on whilst driving on a duel carriage way. I am now not allowed to drive.

BUT they cannot find anything wrong with me or LO (which is great). BP normal. Blood sugar, heart echo, all fine. No GD. Iron fine.

They don't know why it's happening and now I'm stuck trying to work and manage home with no car (rural area) and feeling like it can come on at any moment I exert myself.

Anyone else had this? Many thanks.

Have you thought of general exhaustion, sounds like your life is very busy! Have you had your inner ear checked for infection etc? Xxx
