For whatever reason i keep getting really light-headed and dizzy and somewhat nauseated. Even when I'm sitting down relaxing.. Anyone else have this happen?

Yes! It was happening to me quite often. Your blood pressure is probably lower than pre-pregnancy and this is normal, but some people like myself feel dizzy when this happens. My dr said to make sure i'm drinking alot of water and she told me to add salt to my food. I did this and i haven't had the dizzy spells anymore. It's probably normal, but i would still mention it to your dr next time you see them.

Its normal - it has to do with the increase of blood flow to and from your uterus. Just try getting up slowly (I need to take my own advice :)) and drinking lots of water.

I had this happen in my first pregnancy and my doctor prescribed Iron supplements.

Yes I was dizzy too, before I realized I was pregnant, I found that if I eat small healthy snacks every couple of hours it helps.
