This pregnancy keeps getting harder and harder. I'm so afraid I'm going to have to forfeit my job for it. I've already passed out once a few weeks ago at work. Today, I was scheduled 4-10 and at around 6:30 I pass out in the dish area and took down an entire shelf of dishes with me. The doctor and everyone keeps saying eat small meals and it'll help but this is baby #2 of hearing the same bs that doesn't help. There's no way it could be food. I literallt drank water the whole time to keep me hydrated and ate a #2 Dave's Double from Wendys, made a mimiature coke float, and snacked on pickles and fries throughout the little bit of time I was there because everyone says I don't eat enough. I've been eating and nothing helps my dizzy/pass out spells. I really just want to cry. I feel useless and not even my doctor will listen to me. I don't want to give up my job, but it's so scary. A whole shelf today! What's next? 😢
@pregnant.mermaid96, I understand. That’s rough. Maybe if you can find a better dr, they will help you and get you on the right meds or plan to help you not faint.
@amberspringer it's just a stressful thought because I'm living in a hotel right now. My boyfriend and I are trying hard to get a place but the income is already 80/20 and I feel like I'm gonna have to give up my 20 😕
@pregnant.mermaid96, you and baby are most important. You can always work again later on but your health is something that comes first.
@amberspringer I'm afraid I'll have to because all of my blood work and stuff comes back good. Sugar, iron. My blood pressure is the only thing that is bad and it drops when I get dizzy. It's all bad.
Sorry I’m reading this late but if you are still in a hotel, check to see if you can find an Airbnb any cheaper for you long term. I’ve stayed 4-5 days much cheaper and more comfy since it’s usually an actual house or apt
