Don’t worry, you are not alone! It’s normal cos I started experiencing this at 12 weeks too. I’m almost at 18 weeks now, My lightheadedness hits at very random timings and even though my blood pressure is healthy, it still happens quite frequently. It’s just one of those things that happen as your baby is using up a lot of blood to grow too :) there are some days I feel like I can eat for a village and some days I just don’t get hungry. stay hydrated and get up slowly if you’re sitting/squatting/lying down.

It's normal. I do feel the same way too, so gynae advises to take many small regular meals, just try to eat whatever u like. So for me, I took really light meals like soup, fruit juices, or even fruits that really whet my appetite. And u need more rest babe. Gynae should prescribe iron pills too. I'd mine prescribed towards end of 1st trimester.

Most welcome! If u want, u can call up your gynae to check. Don't need to wait till appt date

Rest more by sitting down if you can. Also eat more small meals and bring some biscuits or bread with u so u can eat whenever hungry.

Noted, thankyou! Will take note! :)

Eat frequent small meals. It helps. And avoid changing posture (stand up, get out from bed etc) too fast.
