Literally - has anyone ever had this happen? You know you see those little white floaty things that actually do look like stars? It has been happening to me alot - well three or four times a week - any idea what it could be????

Basically says it's pretty normal unless you see them more frequently and is appeared all the sudden. You may want to go to the doctor just to be sure. So go.. and then come back and update me. tongue.gif hug.gif hug.gif

Are they accompanied by lightheadedness? Happen when you stand up too fast? If so, it could also be related to dehydration or low blood pressure.

Yes definately I am lightheaded when it happens....not sure if it happens when I stand up or get up from the floor or not - haven't paid that much attention to when its happening just that is seems to be happening alot - maybe an appt. with the MD is in order.....and I think I am due for an eye exam too so I guess I should do both...

Thanks girls and I will KUP......

In the meantime, try upping your water. I'm sure it's nothing serious but since it is accompanied by other symptoms I'd get it checked out hug.gif

I was going to say dehydration too. I got them a lot during my last PG. Things got better after sitting and drinking a large glass of water. What about sleep? Are you sleeping okay? You may want to get your iron checked too. hug.gif

I should have thought of that...I have to take an iron supplement or else I get the lightheadedness.
