While it is normal, it's good to err on side of caution and consult your gynae. Especially because these symptoms can potentially physically harm you and baby (e.g. if you faint and fall). I believe lightheadedness/blurred vision/fainting spells are also symptoms of quite a few different pregnancy-related conditions (e.g. high blood pressure, low haemoglobin levels/iron, gestational diabetes), so better to consult a professional than solely take the opinions here! And don't scare yourself unnecessarily :) Take care!!
i did have fainting spells and seeing white/dark spots during my first trimester and early 2nd trimester. i told my gynae about it and he told me its normal because the amount of blood and oxygen the baby takes in is alot and will make you feel exhausted and also fainting spells. gynae advise to drink alot of water and have some rest in between. :) you’ll be fine when you reach 2nd trimester. dont forget to take all the supplements! eat more iron-rich food :)
i did have fainting spell for my 3 boys , the last one is the worse till i gave birth also i faint at the labour ward while pushing.. but my gynae said this is normal as i have no high or low bp and healthy upon monthly check.. But if u really worry u can just speak up to yr doctor about this.. It can be scary if u faint when u are at work or in MRT..
Yes, experienced the same up till 4th month :( What helped me was eating a meal before leaving house & having sweets as and when I start to feel light headed. Take care!
