Hi there, have your considered that you feel a little light headed bc you are feeling panicky & anxious? I get those symptoms when I feel anxious. The creep crawly feelings could be anxiety related too! Sometimes we feel light headed or dizzy when our blood pressures are lower than usual.Remember that during pregnancy it is normal to have a lower blood pressure. Hope this helps.....I know how scary these symptoms are,really I do.....

Hi:hugs:

I have had a blood clot on my lungs(many years ago) and you are fine!!!!

Please stop worrying

Im not a doctor of course but I think you would have either had severe pelvic pain or a nasty throbbing red leg first

You dont get a blood clot in your lungs it travels from elsewhere in your body

If it was in your lungs you would not be breathless but throwing up blood and in severe pain

Being as you are pregnant I suspect its just the little bundle of joy pressing on lungs etc and making you this way!!!

Like I said Im not medicaly qualified and you should chat to midwife etc but to me it sounds like the joys of pregnancy........having had 2 kids that were around 10lb each I can sympathise!!!!

I also cant spell lol:roflmao:

Take good care of you and bump

Hi

Just to tell yu that I got this in loads of different places. Weird tingly feeling. I think its baby pushing onthe nerves, it certainly didnt come to anything.

Dont worry sweetie its all okay
