Worried 🫤

Is anyone else CONSTANTLY feeling like they’re going to faint? This is such a horrible feeling, I’m always dizzy and I have to be constantly eating to not feeling like I’m going to pass out. Lately I’ve been also throwing up a lot, like I can’t control my gag reflex anymore. Has anyone else dealt with this / has some advice? I’m getting a bit desperate and I’m to the point where I’m getting afraid of leaving the house / driving etc

I’ve been feeling like that with the passing out thing I also constantly feel like I’m gonna throw up but never end up doing just the feeling I’ve been eating soup when I feel like throwing up and I’ve realized that it has been helping with feeling like I’m gonna pass out too maybe try soup if you haven’t already

thank you, I will try soup for sure. Saltines also been helping a bit.

How much liquid are you drinking?

drinking plenty of liquids, mostly water with electrolytes. Doesn’t help.

I fainted whilst in the bathroom at home, literally was on the toilet, stood up and blacked out.... Luckily my husband was sitting at the top of the stairs chatting to me so he lay me on my back and put my legs high over the bath.... These things happen

Have you spoken to your gyno? If so, what did they say? Could it be low iron?

Could be dehydration, low BP or anemia. Take with your OB

About to talk to my OB this week, thanks all for the advice.

I’ve blacked out twice now. Once was in a doctors office waiting room and was really scary, my boyfriend caught me as I went limp. It doesn’t make sense why, i’m okay on iron and hydrated. Hope it goes away for us<3

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Invited to a chuckie cheese party but I don't have money and don't want to tell my daughter that's why we can't go. Does anyone know how their parties work?

I'm not sure how chuckie cheese parties are. If they give you money to play or not if you're in the party. And then I'm wondering if it's an actual birthday party or if they're just going to chuckie cheese. Some guy in my building told me a couple weeks ago that his son's birthday is today and he's thinking of doing chuckie cheese. They sent an invite but I feel so insecure not being able to afford anything. Like if they don't have food for example. Idk what to do.

Owlet

Anyone else’s owlet driving them mad?? It goes off 5/6 times night saying it can’t get a reading and needs a snug fit. My baby is 8 months old so moves a lot. It is driving me insane and I keep end up taking it off! Anyone had similar issues?

Reduced Movements

Has anyone else gone in for monitoring for reduced movements and as soon as you arrive at triage the baby starts moving and the CTG is normal? It makes me feel like I am over reacting.
