I'm only 22 weeks pregnant and I can barely breathe! I mean I can breathe but I feel a horrible fatigue, I'm also feeling dizzy. I remember this happening with my son but when I was nearly 40 weeks and my baby was crushing my organs but I'm not that big right now. Also I was not doing any physical activities for the past hour or so, I just sat, had 1/2 a slice of pizza with my son in the dining room, then came back to the PC to study and as I was reading the texts I felt like I could barely breathe.
I do not have asthma at the moment, the last time I needed the pump was 5 yrs ago and it was during military training after running or extensive excercise, not for sitting my butt in the computer!
Anyone else going through that? what do you do to make it stop?
My next midwife appointment is this next Tuesday.
I can totally relate. With my last pregnancy I was really short of breath all the time. It started for me around 16 weeks and carried on throughout the entire pregnancy! I could hardly go to the store without having to take a break and sit down. I would get so short of breath and then dizzy and nauseous! I know it's not fun at all but my Dr. checked me out and said it was just one of those "pregnancy joys". I hope yours gets better or subsides soon!
