Looking for any advice.

Eating drinking etc as normal. Had a very faint spell on way to work this morning to the point where I worried about finishing the journey (I work 3 miles from home). Faint spell continued all day despite sitting in a chair all day.

Rang community midwife team. They advised a check over with GP. trotted off to GP and blood pressure etc completely normal. Pointless seeing GP really - on one hand telling me I need to take it super easy, next breath advising exercise to prepare for birth.

Very active baby today.

Still feeling awful - faint and feel like I'm not quite here. Anyone else experienced this?

Yes but I have low blood pressure. If your bp is normal or a bit higher than normal then you need to get your urine checked for protein too as preclampsia would be my worry. It sometimes starts with dizziness that often feels like being faint.
