Room spinning when turning over in bed at night?

[L00k4m3x]

Morning everyone, I’ve never experienced anything like this before so hoping someone on here has? I’m 23 weeks pregnant and for the last 2 nights come maybe 3/4am every time I turn over to get comfortable the room completely spins for a good 15 seconds, it’s horrible.

I do currently have a bit of a nasty cold so I wondered if that had anything to do with it? And like I say I’m currently pregnant and I do have blood pressure that’s on the lower side but not super low. I am dizzy upon standing sometimes throughout the day but nothing like what I’ve been experiencing at night.

Any suggestions at all?

Hi @L00k4m3x, did you get an answer to this? Did it resolve? I'm having similar at 25 weeks xx

Hello it sounds a bit like BPPV which happened to me when I was lying in bed and flipped round from lying on my left side to my right side. I would mention it to your doctor.

It honestly lasted about 7 days and then it stopped happening! I think if I’m remembering rightly, I had a bad cold at the time (just read my original post and yup, nasty cold) so I think it was linked to my sinuses somehow. It was awful whilst it lasted though, if it had persisted I would have 100% gone to the doctors or at the very least mentioned it to my midwife.
