Anyone get pregnancy vertigo!?

[Trinigal26]

Guys this has been happening since last Thursday!! It's horrible. The room
Spins nOn stop. I can't deal with it. IRS gotten better but at random times I just start spinning which sometimes gives me nausea. I read it's because of increased hormones and blood vessels increasing in size. My levels were 1440 At 4 weeks 4 days- the day before it started. I went to bed normally and when I woke up to go to work. I couldn't move. I had tp balance. It is such a horrible feeling. Anyone get this?

I had it happen one time. But it only lasted for about two minutes. I hope you feel better soon!

I haven't had the room spin but I'm just now 5 weeks and for the first time this morning I feel dizzy and shaky, it comes and goes. Gagged brushing my teeth but no true "morning" sickness as of yet

That was my first big symptom! I have vertigo on a semi-regular basis, it sucks. Benedryl helps and It's on my approved list of over the counter meds. Hope it subsides for you.

Yep, I know how you feel! I thought it was from quitting smoking because I quit as soon as I got my BFP and the vertigo started the next morning, but maybe it is from hormones? Or a combination of both? Either way it is not fun!

 

[Trinigal26]

Wow. I'm not alone. I feel better. How does benedryl help??
It does suck. It strikes with no mercy. How far along are you girls?

I had this with my first pregnancy non stop from about 5 months along till 8 and a half months maybe can't remember exactly but I know I was bedridden for 3 months but it eased up a few weeks before birth.

Thats like worst case scenario though, they thought I had hyperemesis and medicated me for that, they put grommets in my ears, they tried everything and nothing worked, it just went away one day.

Its was awful, I was hospitalised 3 times for dehydration cos the constant spinning made me vomit and I actually wanted to die because it just wouldn't stop.

I doubt yours would get that bad because yours hit earlier and probably is the increased hormones, but even if it does get bad, no matter how unpleasant and horrible it is at the time.....just remember it does go away! I found sleeping in a semi reclined position helped and keeping myself very still and moving my head very slowly.

I feel really bad for you, I hope it passes quick. It really isn't pleasant. Remember to keep your fluids up too if the spinning making you vomit, its easy to get dehydrated quick.

Benadryl?? I never heard of taking that for vertigo, how does it work?

I have a prescription for Phenergrin, but can't take it now. The sheet the doctor gave me lists benedryl for dizziness too. It kinda makes you drowsy and slows you down. Same thing the Phenergrin does.
