11 weeks and breathless

[mumoftwo1988]

Hi I'm 11 weeks and for the last couple of weeks I have been feeling breathless. Iv had load of blood tests over the last 6 weeks and my iron levels are fine. Has anyone experienced this?

Yes I've had this since quite early on. I haven't had blood tests back yet but I've heard it's normal.

Ok that makes me feel better 😊 thanks

Yep - before I found out I was pregnant it was the breathlessness that made me know something was going on with my body as I’ve never had this before. At 30 weeks now and still breathless haha. Bloods have all been fine etc through our so just a ‘perk’ of being pregnant I guess. Roll on normal breathing after birth!

My childhood asthma returned during pregnancy but thankfully vanished again after my baby was born.

I'm almost 10 weeks and I'm feeling like that too! Yesterday me and my partner went to go food shopping after work and honestly just walking down to the shops had me trying to catch my breath so much! (He also is a fast walker and it's hard to keep up) I just felt so unfit but it's also sometimes though the day I'll feel out of breath too!

Yes it’s the progesterone. It sucks!

I'm 18 weeks and get very breathless, I can't walk and talk without big gasps now and then and even going up and down the stairs gets me
