pregnancy

Im roughly 20 weeks pregnant and since ive been pregnant even in the early stages as well
whenever I stand up or sitting i become short for breath and my legs and feet become tingly.
occasionally parts of my eyes become blurred for long periods of time and sometimes when im standing up doing something i start to feel over heated and about to faint for no reason.

Should I be concerned?

I feel out of breath too when I am pregnant maybe you are lacking in some vitamins and minerals I do have blood preasure problems. Do you ever get headaches or a pain umder your right breast?

No I never see black, I just feel like gasping for air or sometimes my legs get all tingly and randomly my right ARM does as well. And I don't jump up cause they always say that's not good to that. I can be sitting watching tv and the breathing issues happen I get dizzy or blurred vision and etc

See that's what the advise nurse told me by my insurance that I should be seen ASAP. But then I called st. Johns to try n get in and they had me describe my symptoms and told me not to worry about its not a big deal

I think it has something to do with your blood pressure, as I had that trouble. My sight went black with white sparkles, and my legs were weak/

I dont want to alarm you but those are all things that my doctor put on the list of symptoms that should cause you to be seen by a doctor immediately.

When you stand up, do you get dizzy and things go black for a second and then it clears after a minute?
