Dizziness in pregnancy

Hey
Im currently 7 weeks pregnant with our second and for the last few weeks I've been so dizzy.

I didn't get this at all with my first but it's absolutely awful and I honestly feel drunk 🙄

Has anyone else had this? Is this normal?

Yup! In my first trimester I got up off the sofa and went upstairs and the next thing I know I'm on the floor! 😂
I was quite dizzy first trimester and had to take things slowly (getting off the sofa, out of bed etc) but do have a word with your MW or perhaps your GP as they may want to keep an eye on your BP.

Yes! Didn’t have it with my first child either but had it terrible in this pregnancy, it only really went at about week 14! It felt like the room was spinning constantly and it’s bloody hard when you’ve got another child to look after 🙈 good luck it goes for you sooner 🙂

I'm so glad it's not just me! It's awful isn't it! Yesterday was so bad and running around after a very active 11 month old is not ideal 🤦🏼‍♀️ I hope it passes soon!

I had my BP done and no concerns but I hope they keep monitoring it xx

Maybe try some Floradix? My midwife recommended this for me when I was suffering with dizziness despite normal blood pressure. It says it's for tiredness but really worked for me.

I'm 3rd trimester and still get this occasionally now. BP and bloods fine so cant find a particular reason for it, I guess it's just another joy of pregnancy 😉
