What Causes Lightheadedness And Dizziness During Pregnancy?

I've been getting very lightheaded and dizzy when I move out doesn't matter if I'm lying down, sitting up, or standing. And have passed out more than once. I am pregnant and have other children to care for, what can I do to prevent this from continuously happening

Hello ma'am and welcome.

Please get your blood glucose level and blood pressure checked and get it regularly monitored, I feel either of these could be the cause for your presentation. In the meantime, eat well, make sure you have at least 1500-200 mg of sodium per day. Please speak to a nutritionist for a more elaborate evaluation.

Best wishes.
