I have had numb legs, seeing lights (sparks like from a sparkler) and I have been light headed and feels like I have blown balloons up or like all my blood has rushed to my head. Has anyone else experienced this?

I had vision like I was looking through a kaleidoscope when I was mid pregnancy and rang 111 and they sent an ambulance who took me to triage. I was okay but Definitely worth ringing x

I would definitely go, could be a sign of preeclampsia I had the same thing happen to me and told to come in asap or they would send an ambulance I would definitely be checked hun x
did you have the same feeling in your head?

Yeah they had to check my blood pressure x
did u end up having it? xx

No my blood pressure was fine but I had swelling of the legs and hands and the feeling in my head and my vision but because I didn’t have the high blood pressure they couldn’t class it as preeclampsia, but I know it’s very common as my friend had it during her pregnancy so make sure u get it checked out hun to be on the safe side because they usually end up giving you an induction x

I had pre eclampsia. Before I knew I had similar symptoms, regular headache and swollen feet (especially as the day went on). I didn’t link it at the time it was only when the midwife asked. Definitely get it checked ASAP.
