Fainting spells during first trimester?

Is it normal to feel lightheaded and fainting spells during your first trimester? Other symptoms I experienced include feeling shortness of breath, dark vision, breaking out in full sweat, and heaviness of body. It gets better after I’m seated with my head low, but it just doesn’t feel good. I have history of low BP in the past but this usually only happens like once a year, but now it has happened to me for the past 2 mornings while I’m in the train commuting to work. Should I be worried? Does it warrant medical attention? #firstimemom #firsttrimester

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 :)
