Hello, I'm pregnant with my fourth child. I had a miscarriage with my third but I still consider him/her to be my third. <P>I've not had the opportunity to see my doctor because he has been on vacation since I found out. I'm uncomfortable with the amount of sleep I'm needing. Right now I literally have been sleeping on and off all day. When I am awake I'm very disoriented (I mean dizzy). Showers help. I don't remember this feeling with my first two children. I did experience this with my miscarriage last year. Thanks for any possible explanations.<BR>Tess

<BR>My deepest sympathy on the loss of your third child. <P>Sleepy all the time sounds fine...that's not uncommon. Dizzyness, however, sounds a bit scarier.. could be related to high blood pressure...can you see whoever is covering for your doctor? Or, call his office and speak to a nurse? It's probably nothing, but better to be safe...<P>Hang in there--<P>Kathi<BR>

Kathi,<BR>My doctor will be back on Monday and I'm going to see him then. I was hoping that it could be related to iron levels being low because that is possible.<BR>I started taking my iron supplements from last year as well as my prenatals. <BR>Thanks for responding to my post.<BR>Tess

Hi Tessa!!<P>Four kids, one miscarriage, usually sleepy sometimes dizzy. That's it for me in a nutshell. I actually passed out a few times when I was pregnant with girls. Still, go to see someone ASAP if you are scared. Stess will work on your health in a bad way, and worrying about your baby's health is stressful. <P> ![[Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]](http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/images/icons/grin.gif) Congradulations! I hope that this is happy news.<P>H

Thanks Harlequinn! It definitely is happy news. I just wish I had morning sickness. They always told me that was a good sign. <BR>I've got a doctor's appt. first thing Monday morning. Thank you for being concerned.<P>I pray that I can carry this child but if I can't, I pray for my acceptance of God's will in my life. Tess
