I need like an 18th wind to get through the rest of my to-do list and generally to get through the rest of this pregnancy. I've hit a major wall exhaustion-wise 😔

Hope you had a great birthday brenna Anyone else getting lightheaded lately? It happens to me when I’m standing for a while, like standing at the kitchen counter making breakfast. It’s not so bad that I think I’ll pass out, but still noticeable. Google tells me it’s either dehydration, low iron (which I know I have) or blood pressure issues. Oh well, the joys of late pregnancy. Yup, had to sit down the other day because I started to get woozy. It's happened to me a few times since about middle of second trimester, always while standing. Once was bad enough I thought I would pass out and had to have MH get me ice water and I laid down for a while, and it didn't happen again for a few weeks. My BP tends to run a little low so it could be that, or dehydration. I think drinking more water has helped.

If that doesn't help I'll move on to other things to try, but water is always my first try.
