this is my 3rd preg and ive never felt like this before with my other two this early. Ive actually been out of breath easily since I caught a bad cold back in end of Nov which it took me nearly two months to get rid of it as was bad with sinustis, headcold, sneezing etc.....now i feel ok as still blowing my nose but infection gone now, but my arms aches if i do my girls hair. Couldnt get antibiotics off docs.

my baby is kicking low as not kicking up high yet.

I think I'd be inclined to go back to my GP.
Not necessarily for ABX, more to check it all out really.
Do you have any pain in your chest or swollen ankles?

Breathlessness can be a symptom of anemia, I was feeling the same it was only at my 28 week appointment when bloods were taken that it showed up my iron count was very low!

I would suggest you see your GP, Spatone is a natural supplement you can buy which may help. I am feeling tons better now!

I hope you feel better soon x

no pains in my chest nor swollen ankles. I think i will go back as i had a terrible worse sinustis pain and a earache which now had stopped bubbling every time i blow my nose. Docs said ive got fluids behind my ears.

i am also big as poss gonna have a big baby again! (9lb+) as my other two were too, but wasnt out of my breath till the last month of preg.

I agree with anaemia - I had it in my first pregnancy and the symtoms were breathlessness and utter knackeredness ....

Iron tablets will sort it out, but you need to see your GP/midwife for a blood test first, and also to rule our other things.

Hope you feel better soon. It could just be post-viral knackeredness which might go all by itself in time .... best to get yourself checked out though Smile
