With both my pregnancies I never had morning sickness, but if I didn't eat constant small meals I would be dizzy. Thankfully I never fainted, but I would be dizzy and it felt like the world was tipping. So, I hope yours is as easy to manage as mine was by eating and drinking enough and often. Good luck!

I haven't passed out, but have felt very dizzy and close to it on occasion.<BR/><BR/>I'm a little worried about anemia for me, so have tried really hard to up my red meat intake. And like you said, lots of fluids.

I think all the fainting in pregnancy usually has to do with the redirection of blood flow to the uterus. But that's just my assvice. Maybe you should start wearing extra padding just in case.Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17786525217385383129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490746375774981338.post-9734046343106121722008-01-31T09:29:00.000-08:002008-01-31T09:29:00.000-08:00Yikes!

I'm glad you're getting this checked out, and my fingers are crossed that it's nothing too serious.<BR/><BR/>For what it's worth, I have this weird "thing" that makes me pass out/get starry-eyed tunnel vision/shaky/sweaty palms/sort of nauseous every now and then and the doctors have never been able to figure it out. Some think it's a blood issue (like anemia) other's think it's a blood sugar issue (which I personally tend to side with). I'm ok 95% of the time, but every now and then it's not good. I find if I try to mentally keep a balance to what I'm eating, things are ok. <BR/><BR/>Hoping the best for you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
