Dizziness, Black Out Spells During Pregnancy. Should I Be Concerned?

I just made 6 weeks and 2 days pregnancy an I have started having dizziness/black out type spells. I have small twinges in my left side yet sometimes on my right side. With my 2nd child I began to have preeclampsia and during labor my blood pressure bottomed 4 times so I had to get epinephrine shots for the blood pressure. Could these spells be something to check out now or wait until my first true appointment next Tuesday?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
At 6 weeks of pregnancy it is right now too early to get any blood pressure changes. You can wait till your scheduled appointment with the doctor. Checking your blood pressure at home meanwhile is advisable.
