First of all, I am seriously obsessed with taking pregnancy tests, someone needs to tell me to stop! I had a lot of left over FRER's because I bought a bunch back in my TTC days. And I know I always loved seeing the pregnancy tests of the newly preggos! I've been watching them progress because I don't have an obgyn yet, so no level checks, which is making me a bit uneasy. I went to my regular doctor, but she said she didn't feel a need to check my levels since I haven't been spotting or having any other problems. And the new obgyn I plan to switch to was closed for vacation the week I found out, they open back up tomorrow.
9dpo
10dpo
12dpo
15dpo (today! and this was like 4th pee of the day)
I hope everything is okay. I am seriously so scared guys!
But on to my question. I have been getting waves of being extremely dizzy. It happens every 10 min to a half hour, sometimes it's every minute. It's almost like the feeling you get when you are so tired you're falling asleep and your head is nodding off...best description I could think of. It's really bothersome at times. Does anyone know what this is? I've never had this during pregnancy before.

Ali, that progression is gorgeous! My first sign of pg with Gemma was extreme fatigue, dizziness and (TMI) diarrhea so I would think the dizziness is a good thing! I found that taking a nap whenever possible helped. That's about the only advice I can give. It didn't last too long though, maybe 2-3 weeks if I remember correctly!

I think the dizziness is totally normal. Now, if you start passing out, that's when I would be concerned! I still get like that when I stand for more than about 15 minutes (like, in one spot, not walking) so I would just say to take it easy and try not to worry too much! Congrats, again!!!

Try drinking some more water -- either your getting dehydrated already or your just having really low blood pressure cause your body is giving all its attention to the baby :-)

I used to get dizzy during the 1st trimester too! I think it might be because your blood volume is increasing.

Your HPT progression looks great!
I think the other ladies had a good suggestion to drink more water for the dizziness.

If you pass out call your doctor, but dizzyness is pretty normal...I still have it! Drink some water and keep/start taking those Prenatals (it could be low iron also), but its probably just your body adjusting to the hormones and increase blood flow! GREAT PICTURES!

Aww great pics!! with the dizzines, my mom had it when she was preggo with my sister. from what I understand, it can be pretty common. Also tho, there is a bug or something going around that makes you dizzy too! Chris and his sisters bf both currently have it, and well they def are not pregnant haha. Either way, I hope it goes away soon for you!
