  • Have you mentioned this to your carers?

    Perhaps you should have the shower colder? Read in a book that the reason you get dizzy is due to your blood circulation not being so good and can be affected by heat or getting up suddenly etc?

    Sorry I am no help really, but think you should mention it to your midwife if its happening often.
  • hi ya ! its probably cos you have low preassure ? i would speak to your midwife ...!?!

  • Yup - most probably low blood pressure. I suffer with this anyway so almost always suffer from dizziness and vertigo, but in pregnancy it's so much worse. Loads of people with usually normal bp can get it. Not a lot you can do except sit down when feeling dizzy and taking things easy.

    Also eat little and often and make sure you drink plenty of water.x
