What Causes Tiredness During Pregnancy?

I'm 33 weeks pregnant. I'm 5'9 and currently 176lbs. I'm a white female 24 years of age. I had eaten lunch and was walking around the store when I started to feel very faint. I also noticed my heart was racing, but I was not breathing heavy. I have had this happen once before during the pregnancy and decided to check my pulse. The last time this happened my pulse was racing close to 120. I checked my pulse and it was 132. Just like the last time, it raced for about 5 minutes. Once it stopped, I felt incredibly tired and drained. What could be the cause of this?
