To ask what happened to me last night?

Went to bed as normal and was asleep for about an hour. Woke up with terrible pain in my joints, particularly my fingers and my ankles. Like the worst aching pain ever. I felt like I couldn't catch my breath too, like I had to yawn constantly just to get air in. And this also sounds weird but I felt like my heartbeat was slower than usual. This went on for about half an hour before I eventually felt fine and fell back asleep.

Has anybody else experienced this before? I felt so strange, not ill as such just really out of sorts. I'm 23 weeks pregnant and thought the breathless might be due to that but I'm not sure. I remember being breathless in my last pregnancy but that was much later on so I'm not sure if it's that. I've woken up this morning and feel completely fine! What happened?

Sleep paralysis or a vivid dream potentially.

But certainly get yourself checked out at your GP in case there is something else going on.

@sipsqueak Yeah I thought maybe I had woken up in the middle of a certain stage of sleep and that's why I felt so weird. Honestly it was really strange. Maybe I'll see if it happens again before I go to the doctor, I don't want to sound crazy or waste their time
