I fainted at the store/advice needed

[Guest guest]

Wow, that was scary I bet. I would try to have a water bottle with you at all

times and keep it filled with Crystal light. It is just like drinking water

and it comes in so many flavors there is bound to be one you like, just don't

get any teas, they have caffeine in those. i love the strawberry, banana, kiwi,

mmmmmm,mmmmm, good

I was at the store yesturday, i fainted i was out cold i dont even

remember what happend just one minute i was standing and the next i

was waking up to a bunch of GORGEOUS firefighters .. no complaints

there but it was scary..i was on the floor on my tummy and didnt know

how i got there....when i came to, i told them i was pregnant they

wouldnt let me move...i was as white as a ghost and burning up (i

wasnt sick) and my heart wasnt beating right..so they called an

ambulance owe my sugar level was low too.. the ambulance took me to

emergency and they did blood work and checked the babys heart beat

and they fed me too..come to find out i was dehydrated and low blood

sugar..i find it hard to drink liquids expecially water all day long

i really try hard and sometimes i dont think to eat in the morning

expecially on weekends...what can i do to get in more water ? has

this happend to anyone else?

I use to drink crystal lite but i read in the pregnancy book to try

to avoid that type of sugar so I stopped and been drinking water but

my mother in law suggested gatorade i hate gatorade but i will do

what i have to to help give fluids to my baby.. i dont drink caffeine

so thats good although it would be nice to gulp a big soda lol...

Hi Deanna,

Something similar happened to me in the Walmart. I hadn't eaten anything and my

sugar was soooo dangerously low! I also find if I don't get enough protein in I

will feel woozy and like I am going to faint.

I have started keeping protein bars in my purse and when I feel that I might be

getting weak I start munching.

It was especially scary for me cause I had my 3 year old son with me.....he

thought I was playing but I was terrified because what if someone had taken him!

AAAHHHHH!

Be safe and take care of yourself and baby!

Deanna~

I find that my water bottle is my best friend. Sipping from it all

day long, taking it everywhere helps. I also drink fruit 2-0 and

Diet Iced Botanicals flavored water *both found at Sam's Club*.

These add some variety as well as Crystal Light. The only thing I

can add is to keep sipping, drinking all day long.

We don't need you faced down, on the floor any longer! Passing out

is not fun, especially if you landed on your belly!

Hugs and Blessings,

Deanna,

Along with the crystal light (the kind sold in bottles is made with

splenda, don't get the powder kind... it's made with nutrasweet!),

Propel is a great alternative to just plain water. It has only 2

grams of sugar in it, and is sweetened the rest of the way with

Splenda. It also has a few vitamins in it that are good for us.

Also, Fruit H2O is good, too.

One of the things I do to MAKE myself drink enough is upon waking up

in the morning, I drink 20 oz. of water and then 20 oz. of milk. It

takes me about an hour to drink all that, but it sure is worth it.

It has helped keep me hydrated. Most of the time, instead of water,

I drink Propel, though... the lemon is my favorite!!

I've had a few episodes of low sugar and it isn't fun... especially

when you are at the store. I haven't passed out, fortunately, but it

has sure made me aware of what/when I eat and drink!!

Take care!

Sharon
