Common: Your blood vessels dilate in pregnancy and so blood tends to pool and venous return can be decreased by sitting in some positions or standing quickly . Your body jus takes a bit of time to compensate. This may become more pronounced as your uterus enlarges. Give your body time to adjust to position changes. Best wishes.
