Is This Normal In Pregnancy? Posted: 12-04-06 10:16am


My name is sabrina and I am 7 months pregnant. Since I started my second trimester I have been having bad headaches and migraines every day that normal over the counter meds don't touch. My Dr. Has put me on fioricet and I am having to take two pills twice a day to help reduce the pain. About two months ago I have started to have these spells where I am sitting and my body temp. Rises. My whole body gets hot, my face is blood red and I get extremely dizzy and sometimes nasueas. I feel like I am moments away from passing out and have to use a fan and cold wet clothes on my neck to get to feeling better after a while. My Dr. Said that she would like me to see a neurologist, but I can't seem to get an appt. My gest. Diabetes test result was 140, I have had high blood pressure at my last two visits and have swelling in my legs and ankles. I have really bad carpal tunnel this pregnancy too. Just to give you some insight into my pregnancy. Should I be worried about these spells or can I chalk this up to being normal during pregnancy?

I might be wrong...But .K, tigrescanela24, I think fainted in her 3rd trimester. I don't know if it's "normal", but common, yes. If you continue to faint, call your doctor immedietly when you wake up. This is something that could cause you and your baba harm, say if you fall. Keep us updated! Sarah
