Another post ladies, sorry! But the day I gave birth, I had 2 funny turns, I went dizzy, light headed, ears where buzzing and started sweating and feeling sick like I was going to pass out. Today I've had it 3 times.. Is this just with blood loss and low blood pressure? Should I mention this to my midwife?

Speak to your midwife. When I feel my blood pressure is falling I have a bar of chocolate to bring up my sugar levels

@beccastirlingx Were you given Iron tablets? I lost 3 litres and had to have transfusions and Iron tablets. Maybe your levels are low. Iron aids in the production of blood xx

@winterbaby95, my levels where low before labour, I just never took them as it was only borderline. I lost a litre of blood, just didn't think it would be this bad! It can't be helping that I'm still loosing blood either? I'm just so confused, just get random light headed x

@beccastirlingx Losing a litre of blood can deffo bring you below borderline. I was only a tad low during my pregnancy, my midwife said I should still take Iron...as its important for blood production...I had a massive bleed...I nearly died in Theatre..but because my iron levels were good it made all the difference. Blood also carries oxygen around the body x x

@beccastirlingx I know! I lost 6 of those! Don't know how I made it to be honest...the doctors were amazing though! So calm throughout the whole situation :) :) 😯 Eat spinach and lean red meat :) It is high in iron xx
