Sparkles in vision? Come in

[Flick]

I am also seeing them. I described them more as lightning bugs to SO when I had him run and get my BP cuff to check but BP was normal. I was also in the shower so maybe the steam or standing for so long.

Yep I got it in the shower too. Not feeling feint so seems like nothing to worry about.

Sorry to hijack this thread, but how are you and LO @littlechivette ?

As long as they are very temporary and your BP isn't elevated I wouldn't worry about it- I get the exact same thing all the time from bending over

I would get the same thing to, but my bp at the doctor was always fine. Or course, I ended up with early onset pre-e because of my liver enzymes though. Like others said, I would just bring it up with the doctor, but it sounds quite normal.

I get it in the shower too. I don't know if it's a combination of getting too hot or bending or what, but my bp is usually OK when I get out too. For sure worth a mention, though.

I get this too! But my BP has been fine my entire pregnancy....I assumed mine had something to do with my GD, but my #'s are usually ok when it's happening. Maybe it's just a weird pregnancy thing?

I get it too. First time was in the shower I bent down to grab a bottle and when I stood up I had a violent cough. Shooting stars all in my periphery. When it happened a few more times I asked and midwife said it's either that or you pee your pants.

I get them when I stand up too quickly or I bend over. It made cleaning up my classroom at the end of the day not so fun, so I'd bribe my second graders with candy. No shame.

I get them in the shower as well.. Mainly when I am attempting to shave my legs. I talked to my OB about it and she said its probably a combination of the heat from the shower and standing up to fast. She recommended that when I do shave I turn the water colder to help with them and to stand up slower then my usual pace.
