Im 4 months pregnant, and when im sitting down for a long period of time or working in the garden and I stand up I get pretty dizzy. It used to happen before I was pregnant but not as often.

It's perfectly normal. It has happened to me throughout my whole pregnancy. Try not to stand in 1 place for so long and when you are standing for awhile try to bend one knee or put one foot up on a stool or something. This will help a lot.

Yep same here it happens to me and im almost 8 months. How old r u? I see ur new here but u havent told us about urself that I see. I dont think u did either kourtney?

That will happen. Its just part of pregnancy. Especially at your stage in pregnancy. If it continues past 6 months on a daily basis you could have hypoglycemia, thats what I have. But you probably dont need to worry about anything yet. If your standing and you get dizzy and you cant sit down right away for some reason, try crossing your legs and squeezing really tight. That forces the blood back to you head. Otherwise try eating saltine crackers throughout the day and that should help too.

Hey im actually only 15...Has anybody here actually fainted before??I hate even standing up anymore because of that.And I heard excercise may help that?!Is that true?

I havent, but ive heard many pregnant women do faint. Im not sure, excersize probably helps because it gets ur blood circulation going. But I wouldnt do any heavy excersize of course, but light excersize would probably help. Hey tell us about your self. U said ur 15 and 4 months along.. Are u with the father? Are ur parents supportive? Your keeping the baby I assume? Grade, where ur from etc. *

Yes I am still with the father we had some issues though its really hard trying not to get stressed out about everything.My parents took the news well and they do anything they can to help now.His mom flipped out she like started freaking out on me and being very rude now she is ok and cant wait for the baby to get here because its her first grandchild.Im definitly going to keep the baby my mom said if I didnt want to she wanted him/her.I am from louisiana and im in 10th grade I havent been able to go to school because of morning sickness and being tired I really wasent able to pay attention I was running to the bathroom all day.
