Blacking out

I'm 11 weeks and today I experienced something scary I was feeling dizzy and nauseous so I went to the bathroom next thing I know I open my eyes I'm on the bathroom floor biting my tongue and vomit right next to me. It took me a second to adjust and realize where I was, when I was finally able to i threw my self in adjustable cold shower.
now I am feeling better but just wondering if any one else has experienced this? If this is normal?

That happened to me in my first pregnancy. I didn't wake up to vomit. But, I felt like vomiting before I passed out, hot flashes, nausea, ect... Doc told me I need to eat more often and drink lots of water.

I fainted at 13 weeks, after feeling very dizzy, nauseous, and hot. I was walking back to my bed and blacked out, and fell and hit my head. My doctor told me to go to emergency, and they did an EKG and an ultrasound to make sure the baby was ok. Everything was fine, but the ER doc said I most likely experienced vasovagal syncopy. Definitely call your doctor, you might need to be seen in case you have a concussion if you hit your head.

It could be from dehydration or it could be a number of things I would go to the hospital to be safe

I've almost blacked out a couple times but never did. It was while I was driving and I had to pull over to cool down
