Hmmmmm....

Did you see your midwife this week? Was your blood pressure OK?

Sounds like something you should probably mention, just to make sure it's nothing to worry about. Could be a virus, are you OK apart from that?

Now then Emma, are you are drinking and eating enough?? LOTS of water? I say this because if it's happening at the same time of day it could be down to this.

If you are, then I would maybe mention it to your mw, because it might be an underlying low bp or something like that. Otherwise, try and make sure you're drinking tonnes and eating on a regular basis. I can't go more than 3 hours without nibbling on something because I start to get exactly the same as you hun.

Hope you feel better soon

thank you

yeah i saw my midwife last week and everything was fine. my bp is normal so i dont think its that.

i have been drinking lots but now you've come to mention it claire it could be to do with food. i got it yesterday as i was getting ready to go round our friends for sunday lunch and i hadnt eaten much and i just got i before i went to lunch so could be something to do with that.

could it be tiredness aswel? as i havent had much sleep the past few nights so maybe thats giving me the headaches?? or maybe i've just got a bug. coz i havent been feeling all that great. ah i dont know. but i'll make sure i eat and drink regularly and get an early night and see if that helps. x

Try and make sure you're nibbling on something regularly, something like fruit that's got some sugars in it to keep you going.

And yes, I think it could be tiredness too hun. Keep an eye on it and make a note even, how well you've slept and how much you've eaten to see if there's a pattern there?

ahhhh, the delights of being preggers hey!!
