Dizzyness.

[AgentM]

I know it's normal to feel dizzy in the first stages if pregnancy. But I keep getting this plus, out of breath. Like I've just run up a hill. I feel exhausted with it too, I can barely stand and if I try and work through it, it just gets worse.
Has anyone else had this?

Have you had your bloods done? I called the midwife today and she said they were all fine. She suggested I see a doctor, but don't want to waste their time really.

Are you eating and drinking as normal or is the place you work really warm? Maybe it's something to do with that?

I remember I looked up the breathlessness a few weeks ago, I just looked it up again to copy it to you..

'Any breathless you experience in the first or second trimester is likely to be a result of the pregnancy hormones affecting your respiratory system. 'Pregnancy' hormones such as progesterone stimulate your lungs to adapt to your body's changing needs and help your body to process oxygen and carbon dioxide more efficiently.'

Don't know if that helps any. If it's happening often then maybe you should see the doc just to be on the safe side and stop worrying? You wouldn't be wasting their time x
