Cause for concern or normal?

[heatherxo]

Hey ladies.
I'm 15+6 weeks. For the last few days I've not felt "myself". Having short spells of feeling sick, dizzy, weak, just "weird" in general.
I feel like absolute crap right now.. It started maybe 20 minutes ago and is building in intensity. I feel extremely dizzy and quite sick, I can feel my heart beat more prominently and I think it's sped up a little. My whole body feels heavy and every time I move (especially my head) I'm getting extreme dizziness - I honestly feel like I'm going to faint at any second.
Is this normal? 2nd pregnancy, never had this last time at all. Thank you

Have you had iron level checked?

No I haven't, at least I don't think so. Saw the midwife at 8 weeks and not due to see her until the 30th

I took liquid iron as the tablets gave me bad heads and sickness .

Literally the exact issues I have had (think mine started at 20ish weeks). Turns out I was anaemic. Iron supplements have made a huge difference.
Let them know at appointment and they’ll do a blood test.
Word of advice if you are anaemic - the tablets are awful, buy some ‘spatone’ instead, it’s liquid and much more gentle on digestion!

I would give her a call, for peace of mind.

I'm also on iron tablets too for this reason.
