Hi guys,

Currently 13 weeks and I've been feeling on and off dizzy at work but nothing too bad. I was at a party on Saturday and there were speeches which I was standing for, it got to about 10 minutes in and my vision was going fuzzy, I was seeing stars and Grabbed my husband and said in fainting so he sat me down, and I blacked out for about one second then came around. Today I've been feeling dizzy again.

My 11 week bloods were all fine.
Have my first Nhs scan tomorrow so I will ask then but I wondered if anyone else has experienced this?
I've never fainted in my life before.

I have had this. We were away on holiday in Newquay and was walking around the town. After a while, i said to my husband that I needed to go back to the car or sit down and then felt really dizzy and fainted. Luckily like you, held into him so between him & my friend, they lowered me onto the floor.
I was 15 weeks at the time and spoke to midwifes who just said it was down to a drop in blood pressure and to make sure i eat & drink frequently. Ive felt dizzy probably 6-8 times since but not actually fainted again.

Drink loads of fluids. Mention this at your appointment and get your blood checked again.
