What could this be?
I do plan to call my midwife first thing tomorrow morning.
Yesterday, I went to a festival. I wore a dress to not over heat, it was 87 degrees. I’m 32 weeks pregnant.
I was in line with my boyfriend for piña coladas. All of the sudden I started feeling dizzy. I told him as he was ordering our drinks and he looked at me and said I was so pale, my lips and my skin were the same color. I felt like I was going to faint. We went to a near by bench and he brought me my piña colada and a bottle of water. After about 30 minutes I felt fine.
Has this happened to any of you? What was it?
I was thinking blood sugar or maybe my iron but I passed the glucose test (doesn’t that mean I’m in the clear?) & I haven’t had any iron issues this pregnancy.
Dehydration was what mine was also might been too because I have very low iron
@brittnylynntorres, I get like that quite a bit and I’m only 27 weeks. I think a lot of it is dehydration. Keep yourself hydrated momma and if it happens again or maybe just to be safe call your doctor. Good luck dear.
@pamelawife134, yes of course lol. I probably should of specified I was in the Puerto Rican Festival, it’s a common drink sold there. I’d never drink alcohol while pregnant.
I had this while I was pregnant and during the summer. It happened at target. I made it to the bathroom before I passed out. It was a mix with the heat and blood sugar
@brittnylynntorres, I never had pre eclampsia with my first pregnancy so those symptoms I never experienced until this pregnancy...and I don’t have any high blood pressure reading either! My blood pressure has always been pretty good until last Tuesday ... it was on the higher side and she told me it’s something to watch cause it wasn’t HIGH but it wasn’t normal either .... like you said tomorrow call your midwife and see what she says , I hope it’s nothing serious ❤️
Make sure you are drinking enough water and eating small snacks throughout the day. Take time to rest throughout the day also.
All the time.. Nothing seemed to help literally except for sitting. It happened in the store once and My kids freaked cuz I sat in an aisle Lol But I would sit and that was all that ever helped, I was always very hydrated. Other then this which doctor said was totally normal I had a very heal the pregnancy so I wouldn't let it alarm you but just make your doctor aware in case its something going on in your case. Glad u felt better soon! I hated that it always freaked me out
@taegwaltney95, this scares me because I had preeclampsia my last pregnancy (diagnosed during labor so idk the signs). I’m high risk for it. I haven’t had protein in my urine or high blood pressure readings though. This is the second time it happened. This didn’t even cross my mind that this could be it.
@kayliajbristow95, thank you!
@mother.of.2, I was thinking that at first but I was only there 2 hours. Def possible tho!
I have this SAME EXACT THING happen too me .... I just talked too my doctor about it because it’s been happening more often now .... and they found a little protein in my urine ... they are thinking I might have pre eclampsia. I had to do a 24 hour urine test and blood work on Friday. I would def call your mid wife to be sure . They also told me before they found the protein , that they thought it was my blood pressure dropping too fast! She said stay hydrated drinking at least a half a gallon of water a day!
Sounds like dehydration. It happened to me a lot during my pregnancy.
Maybe the standing so long? This happens to me (dizziness) when I stand too long but that pale lips and skin you should def call a nurse hotline (since it's the weekend) just to see what it might be.
In the beginning of my pregnancy I would have syncope all the time, would just get pale and dizzy and pass out on the ground wherever I was, and my blood pressure would just drop! I would have them check your bp cause heat, dehydration maybe, anything like that could affect it. Good luck mommas! Try to take it easy ☺️💗
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
