A bit TMI, but feeling very ill after sex

Sorry for the TMI but I'm not sure if something is wrong. Am 28+3 weeks pregnant. DH and I had sex this morning and about half an hour later I started feeling very woozy, nauseous and have blurred vision. I keep feeling like I'm about to be sick/lose conciousness but this feeling fades in and out. DH has gone out with the car, I am stuck inside because of the snow and ice. Is this fairly common? What should I do?

Bumping for you. It doesn't sound common, to be honest I would ring NHS direct, and try to get hold of your dh or someone else. How are you now? Have you been drinking enough?

Bump. Hope you're ok.

I think you should get your blood pressure checked asap.......blurred vision and nausea can be signs that it's too high. Sorry not to be more help but hope you feel better X

Don't want to panic you but blurred vision and nausea can be symptoms of pre-eclampsia. It's probably something else (or nothing) but you should call your out-of-hours GP anyway or get your husband to take you to a drop-in clinic if you have one nearby. They'll check your BP and hopefully you'll be fine but better to find out now and get it dealt with.

Ok, thanks everyone for the replies and suggestions. I had a nap and something to eat and feel a lot better but will keep an eye on things and will call NHS Direct if it happens again, as well as discuss it with the midwife at my next appointment. again!
