I'm anemic and hypoglycemic. So around weeks 22-28 wen Ur blood pressure is lower naturally in pregnancy I passed out in both of my pregnancies. Be careful and talk to Ur Dr about ways to avoid fainting. Its more common than not.

I was in the beginning of my first pregnancy and was put on a high dose of iron pills. That's really the only way out of it
