Anyone experience this? I'm almost 3 weeks PP & I keep on having dizzy spells, one really bad last week where I almost fainted. I was at an outdoor concert & started feeling really lightheaded. Everything went sorta dark, I was confused & had to sit down for awhile before I felt normal again. My friend said I had a blank stare & started trying to walk when she told me to sit down. I don't remember any of that. That was by far the most extreme episode but a few times a day I get light headed when I stand & it's unusual for me.
My blood pressure was perfect through my pregnancy so I'm really confused. I didn't lose an extraordinary amount of blood during delivery either. The only thing I can think of is my BP did drop during labor & I was given meds intravenously to correct it. However, due to another issue during L&D I was closely monitored for 48 hours & my Bp was fine. Ie a nurse took my vitals every 4 hours around the clock....so seems they would has mentioned any issue there??
I still have 3 weeks until my 6 week check up, should I call or is it a case of my body settling & hormones going back to normal?
