Anyone want to hear of a weird pg symptom?

Ok, here goes. I was blowing bubbles for my DD yesterday and I started getting very dizzy. So I stopped. Just a few minutes ago she asked me to do bubbles again. All of a sudden I got very dizzy so I stopped for 5 min. then tried again and this time not only did I get dizzy but extremely nauseas as well. I do remember not being able to blow bubbles with my last pregnancy. Isn't this weird. What do you think causes it?

Are you dehydrated at all when your blowing bubbles?  I get that too, but it's with all kinds of things.  Staying hydrated while pregnant is hard, and when we are dehydrated were more likely to get dizzy from things like standing, standing up, blowing (like bubbles, or playing a musical instrument like the trumpet, etc).

I the same problem when I was pg with my DD. I don't remember the nausea. But lowing bubbles doesn't usually effect me. I blew them last week without any problems.

i think its not lack O2 but more effect of blowing of CO2 too quickly, this causes blood vessels to your brain to constrict and some areas under perfuse (which is why its bad to hyperventilate) - anyway , blowing bubbles is its effectively hyperventilating to your normal rate which makes you dizzy and faint- i guess if your pregnant it may be that you body will probably be way more sensitive to these changes in your blood gas levels.  if you  are getting dizzispells/out of breath you should see doc to check all healthy especially if you're pregnant :)

there are so many weird pregnancy symptoms even Vivid dreams of you being pregnant is a sign and having Cold like symptoms or even a cold. its so weird, people also get dizzy during pregnancy I fainted, but I was far along LOL, but you can get dizzy during pregnancy, but before taking a test or anything, see if you feel dizzy when you're NOT blowing bubbles and if you are then do it, because in a nice way you dont want to waste a test if you're not cause of the amount of O2 and stuff. i dont mean to sound mean sorry if I did. But wait untill you feel dizzy when you aint blowing bubble, and see if you have your periodd or somethingss :) I hopeed this helped and again sorry if I sounded meann :) I really didnt mean too. Sorry Sorry Sorry :) But I hope for the best :) x

You are getting dizzy blowing bubbles because you are blowing more air out than you are taking in to replenish what your body needs for oxygen exchange.  Its the same dizzy feeling you get when you are blowing up an inflatable pool raft.  It's your body's reaction to not having enough O2.

That seems really odd. Im sure it just has to do with the extra room baby is taking up, but that is really wierd.
