More of a problem with heights

Hey I'm nearly 20 weeks pregnant and surprised myself yesterday by suddenly having a major problem with heights on some stairs.

I was doing my commute home and got to the underground station to find the escalator wasn't working, no lift so we needed to walk down (probably about 4 floors).

Now I've never really liked it when this happens normally but can do it fine but yesterday I got about five steps down and felt really dizzy and sick and had to stop and then come back up (almost in tears, so embarrassing).

I know its not the stairs themselves as I live on the 5th floor and do those stairs just fine. I think it was being able to see the whole way down (which I never normally do on an escalator as I'm looking at the ads), anyone else had problems with heights during pregnancy? Can I blame it on the hormones or not?
