Light Headed

Im 9 weeks and I have a new symptom that puts the cherry on top of my constant nausea.  I'm always light headed and dizzy.  Sitting down, walking around and standing up is worse.  I've been drinking water.  Is there a cure? :(

Water.. Make sure you're eating enough. When you get up get up slow. And when you sleep along time some people say soon as you wake up eat some crackers before you get all the way up

Its basically the increase amount of blood you're heart is starting to pump through your body for your baby. You have to start being slower when you sit up or stand haha it happens to me when I stand I'm 15w+4

Ugh.. im going to stay in bed until all this is over and just have my boyfriend do it all for me.  It's so bad sometimes I feel like I might pass out.  I dont even want to get up.  It makes me more sick.  Why can't pregnancy be as beautiful as the outcome :(
