Low iron? I think they'll check your blood at 12 weeks.

I've had bloods at 9 weeks and they were ok do they do more at 12? Or is it best I ring the gp in the morning

Do you normally have asthma? Mine started to get worse around 10 weeks.

Is your pulse ok? I felt breathless and went to see my GP and she checked my pulse and it was waaaaaay faster than it should have been!!

I've never had asthma :/ it settled down after a short while but was still quite scary
