About Five Weeks Pregnant And Feeling Some Weird Symptoms

Hi,
i was just told by my doctor that i'm
about 5 weeks pregnant...This was after I
felt nauceous and lightheaded and vomited
a couple of times and then taking an ept
test to confirm.
Now i'm experiencing double vision and I
can't even drive myself to work. Does
this go away? Anything I can do about
it? It's very frightening.
Thanks!

Well unfortunatly that is a symptom of
pregnancy and it should go away in a few
weeks. I dunno if there is anything you
can do about it, maybe contackt your doc
and find out. Good luck and stay safe on
the road!!!

Thanks so very much for the fast reply and
encouragement that this is one of the
symptoms of pregnancy. I guess I had a
different vision of what pregnancy was
going to be like. Sigh! And thanks for
the words of encouragement that this
double vision issue should go away in a
few weeks. I called my obgyn and spoke
to the nurse. She said the same thing
you did and she also said increase my h20
intake and get lots of rest.
Btw, I take it that's your daughter? She
is absolutely adorable!

Yes, lightheadedness and dizziness are
other issues....I'm dealing with that.
It's the double vision/fuzziness that's
freaking me out. It's my first
pregnancy....Lovely!

that sux, I didn;t black out, but in
pregnancy #2 I fell in the shower during
my 6th month, I hit my head on the side of
the tub and it bounced off and hit the
faucet and I also hit my stomach on the
side of the tub so of course I went to the
labor and delivery... They swore up and
down my husband pushed me!!!!!! I was so
mad that someone could think of him that
way!!! I know they were just doing their
job, but they would not stop asking, and
richard didn;t even get mad about it like
I would have!!!! He said we know what
happened, we are here for you and the
baby......
So girls, be careful

The only reason they must have thought
that hunni was because woman who do get
beat use excuses like that alll the
time... They are only concerned!

I do know that when you are pregnant you
loose your center of gravity.. That is
why when you are pregnant you cant ride a
bike... When my friend was pregnant I
went to the doctors with her and he told
us that...

I know now why they were acting that way
(and in the back of my mind I knew then
and I was mad at all the dumb girls who
get beat and lie about it... Sorry if
that offended anyone) but I was 6 mon preg
and worried about my baby and in my mind
they were wasting time with something
irrelevant, especially after the 7th or
8th time of me telling them that yes I was
sure I fell in the shower, ya know

Double vision happened to me to
gurl..Sometimes my eyes would get so bad I
couldnt see at all out of one of them...I
went to my eye doctor and they said it was
prob caused by pregnancy...After then I
havent had them again.
