So apparently when you get pregnant your body goes kinda nutso.......
So today I stood up and kinda saw spots.... this has happened a couple of times if i stand up to fast so i thought nothing of it... well the spots started to get bigger and i kinda started to get dizzy.... so i thought maybe my blood sugar is low so I ate and orange and drank some water... nothing! The spots got so big that my right vision space was covered with a big "flash" like what you get when you take a picture.... So i went to the nurse and had my blood pressure taken and it was normal. Then the more I described my symptoms they figured that I was probably experiencing my first Pregnancy Migraine........ well thats just awesome! So they laid me in dark room for 10 minutes and when i came out the spots where gone!!
The weird thing is my head never really hurt... but for the rest of the day I had a small headache and was really tired. Being the crazy that I am I googled it and turns out it is pretty common!
According to AmericanPregnancy.org "It is also normal to experience your first migraine when you are pregnant. Some studies have found a slight correlation between migraines and hormones."
According to TheHealthGuide.org "Ocular migraine and dizziness go hand in hand and the dizzy feelings are ascribed to the fact that when the patient’s vision is blurred it follows that there will also be certain amount of dizziness and flashing lights in the corners of the eyes. In addition, the individual will also notice gray or black spots obstructing their natural vision.
The good thing is I am going for my 10 week doctors visit tomorrow so I can have her check out all these fun new developments... HA!!
After the appointment we are heading to Dallas for Tacie and Sean's Wedding!!!
Have a great rest of the week!
