Low BP fainting

[lifeparadox333]

Hi all, hopefully someone can advise some
Pearls of advice! I'm almost 7 wks pregnant felt abs fine until last wk! 😫 keep getting so many episodes of low blood pressure but comes on suddenly and I think it's linked to hunger! I have felt very close to fainting a few times too, I go red hot then lose the feeling in my arms and feel abs terrible, eyes hurt too. Dr isn't concerned said it's normal but other than drinking water what else would you be eating to stop it do I maybe need higher carb foods and if do what did you eat and what else helps it as it's vile?!!! Thank you!

Something salty! I would keep a packet of crisps close by for when it happens. Sadly a very common and normal symptom in early pregnancy but doesn't make it any easier to deal with.

Ooo ok! Thats interesting I'll grab a load of crops and salted stuff, it's abs vile! My poor head and eyes feel so bad! I never had this once with my first at all and barely much sickness but this is already awful...5 wks until the second Trimester thank god!

Crisps*
