That another one would be me!!!
Post Disclaimer: Before you panic when you are reading this story, me and the baby are just fine, just slightly embarrassed and traumatized! Continue on to read a good story.
Ok so there I was going to the bank to deposit my paycheck at 10:30a.m. this morning. I'm standing in line minding my own business, I knew I was a little hungry but thought I could get some food when I got to work after this little stop. However, as I waited and waited I began to feel a little faint, I started to get a little sweaty and wanted to sit down but I was next up to the teller. I made it to the teller, gave him my checks. About that time my vision started to tunnel. I knew I should sit down but I figured I could only be another minute or so, well I was wrong!!! The next thing I knew I was being picked up off the floor by some freaking out bank employees. By the time I was sitting down in a chair and had some water they told me an ambulance was on its way. I insisted that I was fine, I was pregnant and just needed to get some food. I told them I was embarrassed and just would go to work, they weren't really liking that.
The ambulance showed up and after I persisted I was good they took me in the ambulance to check me out. (Just to sit in the ambulance not go anywhere so I don't go in to debt) They took some blood and my heart rate and my information and all that fun stuff. They wouldn't let me drive so I had to call Hank to come get me. I think I panicked poor Hank a little but when he got in the ambulance and saw my look of pure embarrassment he had to laugh, he said my face was priceless.
Long story short, they let me sign a waiver saying I didn't want a ride to the hospital but made me go to my doctor who checked me out and sent me for blood work. Apparently even though I am not having as much pregnancy sickness I need to keep orange juice in my purse and avoid the bank on 4th street at all costs. I think it will be awhile before I go back I am slightly embarrassed or traumatized, take your pick!

I have never fainted, but my mom tells me of a time when she was pregnant with me. She and my Dad were in line at some sporting goods store. She started to feel light headed and then...black. As she was going down she grabbed at my Dad. She caught his pants and those too almost hit the floor. The next thing she knew she was being propped up at a tenting display and being forced some drink.
I tell you this just to let you know it happens and there are others out there who share your shame. There is strength in knowing that.
Wow, that sucks! A little scary, but totally embarassing that everyone made such a big deal out of it!! Glad you're okay, and drink that OJ!
Glad you're OK, but that is hilarious. You definitely can't forget to eat again!!
OH MY GOSH!!!! I can not believe that! Seriously, so embarrassing! (Don't you love my support)??
I'm SO glad you and baby are fine! And I'm also glad you didn't have to pay for the ambulance. Those things are expensive!
Geez laweez, I'm going to start carrying some goods with me as well! I've felt faint before but fortunately have never passed out!
So sorry for your experience! However, it makes for a great story! :)
WOW! That is scary and totally awesome at the same time! Glad things are okay.
