Pregnant, Light Headed And Shaky In The Mornings, Red Kidney Bean Shaped Objects In Faeces. Problem?

Hi, I am currently 8 months pregnant and I often feel light headed and shaky in the mornings when I wake up or from naps, I also have diarrhea at times but this time I noticed red kidney beam shaped objects in the feces, I have been having some cramping and I feel pressure on my lower abdomen and vaginal area at times not always. I'm a little concerned, could you help me with what this could be?

Hi,
Thanks for the query.

Hypoglycemia can be seen in pregnancy sometimes. And also positional hypotension can also be seen.
So don't get down from the bed immediately after waking-up. Be in lying down position for 5 to 10 minutes and get down slowly.
Take sufficient food in the night and take breakfast early.
Check for blood sugar and blood pressure levels once.
Pressure can be due to increasing size of the baby with progression of gestation.
Some amount of constipation is common in pregnancy. That may be a cause for bleeding in feces etc. If the thing repeats go for fecal examination once.
For more details you can ask me through: http://www.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-sree-gouri-sr/63429
Take care.
