Has anyone had this happen? A little scary
So I know we aren't supposed to get massage unless it's by a prenatal professional, but I never considered the little neck rub they give you at the nail place a real massage. Anyway, the way the woman was rubbing my neck, all of a sudden, I felt really lightheaded and dizzy and broke out in a sweat. It must have been a minute only, but I asked for water and then felt fine. Trying to drink water and just relax now; will mention it to the doc Friday at my visit. I freaked out; do you think it's ok? I feel ok now. in the 13th wk this week.

Re: Has anyone had this happen? A little scary
I'm sure its ok- just keep drinking water if you can
I actually passed on the little massage that they do at the end last time I went because my place has the massage chairs and that actually ended up hurting- so I shut it off after a couple minutes

maybe next time i will pass. it felt great on my shoulders--it was something specifically she was doing to my neck that I could feel myself getting dizzy

Re: Has anyone had this happen? A little scary
It's fine.
I had a professional pre-natal massage a couple of weeks ago at a high end spa and was told the only place they couldn't touch were my ankles and between my thumb and pointer finger. Those are trigger spots.

Re: Has anyone had this happen? A little scary
my doc told me that in this weather the whole 6-8 glasses a day isnt enough. we all should be consuming more like 10-12. you couldve just been dehydrated and it be a complete coincidence.
feel better and stay hydrated!

I was also going to say the weather.
I never turn down the free neck massage at the nail salon.

Re: Has anyone had this happen? A little scary
thanks,girls. wow, this can be scary! I have NEVER felt lightheaded like this ever. I just looked in my What To Expect and it says feeling like that from even gentle massage is normal b/c something about blood flow. I called the doc rather than wait for Friday b/c that's just how I am; I'm waiting for her call. I'm sure she'll just tell me to rest.

I never turn down a massage BUT
I wanted to say, even now at 35w - the ONLY place I have ever felt sick (light headed, dizzy, sick to my stomach) was the nail salon! So strange, I think its the chemicals!
