Is This Normal?

[zulema1015]

Ok I am 32 weeks, ftm, and lately I have been up and down and not getting as much sleep as I should due to planning baby shower. Now I have two questions, 1st: Is it normal fo rme to be feeling light headed, dizzy, and drained in the morning? I feel like I have no sugar in my system or something. 2nd I haven't been spotting at all and today I went to the bathroom and had some pinkish blood, is this normal? I also had sex right before I went to the bathroom.

Thanks in advance ladies!

It could be the lack of sleep I guess...I only sleep like 4-5hrs because my baby wont stop moving at night. I feel like I am not growing enough for her and she moves because she doesnt have enough space. So I am up all night because she wont be still.

@mum2b260216 I drink about 10 16oz water bottles a day if not more, my husband and I drink about 5cases of 24 water bottles a week.

Do you drink enough water? Dehydratation can cause dizzyness, it does for me.

I have had dizzyness & felt drained all the time etc through my pregnancy but I have 4 weeks left and just gone on to maternity leave.. I had been doing 5 nights a week 12 hour shifts... would of carried on but not only got me to think about anymore and it's took affect on my back, I sleep for 2-5 hours per a day. X

Preclampsia is what I meant by pre-e

[zulema1015]

@maw4389 I tested negative for gestational diabetes, I was told I have perfect blood pressure last doctor visit which was a week ago, and I don't even know what pre-e is? I dont have a midwife and I tried to call my doctor but they are always busy when I call.

@hailz91 thank you! I will try that sometimes I have oatmeal and a bagel something light in the morning and still feel dizzy, but I will try maybe having a bigger meal.

If your midwife isn't worried then I'm sure it's fine.

[hailz91]

I asked my midwife recently about dizzyness ect and she wasnt worried just said its all part of the joys of 3rd trimester.
I have gestational diabetes and she said its not related.
Her advice was maybe try eat something small before u get out of bed might help u feel a bit better

The spotting is from sex. The cervix is sensitive. Did you test positive for gestational diabetes? Do you have high blood pressure? Have you been checked for pre-e?
