Dizziness,
symptom of pregnancy
Is
dizziness a sign of pregnancy?
Some
women experience dizziness in early pregnancy. However, generally
dizziness in pregnancy usually occurs in the second or third
trimester. Dizziness is not a classic symptom of pregnancy.
Typical symptoms
of pregnancy include one or more missed periods
(amenorrhea),
breast
tenderness, nausea
or vomiting, and urinary
frequency.

What
causes dizziness in early pregnancy?
During
pregnancy, blood volume (the amount of blood in the body)
increases thirty percent. Conversely, lung capacity (or how
much air your lungs can hold) decreases five percent. This
can cause symptoms of shortness of breath and occasionally
dizziness as well.
Other
causes of dizziness
Orthostatic
hypotension, low blood pressure that occurs when changing
from a sitting position to a standing position (or
lying position to sitting position), is a common cause
of dizziness. Low blood sugar and inner ear infections
are another cause of dizziness.
