Super dizzy the day after 12 weeks scan

I've had my 12 weeks scan yesterday (all was perfect❤️). But today I've woken up super dizzy and feeling more sick than usual. Could this be related to the scan? Should I be worried? Has anyone experienced the same? Need some reassurance please 🙏

A scan doesn't have the capacity to make you dizzy and sick. An ultrasound is harmless. Congrats!

It can’t make you ill at all. This would have happened even if you had not had the scan, most likely a minor illness or hormonal.

The illness might not even be pregnancy related or it could be hormones from the pregnancy.
if you’re worried speak to your GP.

What on earth is “energy tea” @FOrmalenery221 ?

@Dzejn please dont eat or drink things that have such claims until they are properly checked out & you can make an informed decision; if in doubt, don’t!!
Meanwhile, congratulations on your wonderful news - you are growing a baby, focus on on providing the right nutrition for both of you x

I second clearskin please lease do not take anything like this without scientific evidence base.

Also nope to any of your symptoms being related to the scan.
A visit to your GP would be helpful.

I had this around 12 weeks, before the scan. I called maternity triage and they said it can be very normal. Thankfully it only really lasted the day. I have a healthy 5 month old baby now 😊 obviously if you're worried/it continues then do get checked out!
