This morning i was in the kitchen and my eye sight got covered my lots of little sort of star type things. I felt fine, wasnt hungry or anything. Is this something to do with blood pressure or just ignore it?

I'm also seeing lots of stars during this pregnancy - I assume due to tiredness and blood pressure as I'm perfectly healthy and the baby's fine, and I've recently had my eyes checked so I know there's no problem. I've also had a few opthalmic migraines - when you get the aura of a migraine but no other symptoms. My eyes are also incredbily sensitive to light at the moment.

Glad you're ok mad4mybaby.
