Can’t breathe

Im also on baby #2 and it feels like im suffocating i worked out heavily with my first but now i feel winded and my heart beats so fast as soon as i do anything i need a break

@Vencecea yes thats how I’m feeling. Ive asked my ob and they aren’t concerned but also I have a 4 year old I can’t be feeling like this. I’m hoping one of them will be able to help me soon. I got a belly band and that’s not really doing anything. My family normally goes on walks and trips to go do stuff and ive not really been able to do any of that and feel so bad because we can’t really do that stuff right now. We went to the aquarium the other day and I had to keep stopping because I couldn’t breathe.

Have you told your OB?

@Esther yes I asked they aren’t concerned and say for some people pregnancy causes it to happen and after baby is here I won’t feel this way anymore. But I have a 4 year old and can’t keep feeling this way because he’s very active and I’m home alone with him 4 days a week since my husband works and can’t help.

Girl. I'm living in a 3 floor house, and every time I have to do laundry going all those steps kill me

@Deyanira I feel so bad because just trying to play with my son I have to stop and take a break. Thankfully his dad now has 3 days off a week so he’s been picking up my slack but I hate not being able to be fully hands on with my son. He thankfully kinda understands that I’m not able to do stuff like I was before hand and he likes being able to help take care of me so I’ve been asking him for help so we can still do stuff together.

@Megan it’s so terrible that most of this horrible pregnancy symptoms have no treatments! I’m so sorry you’re going through this! I wish there was a way I can help ☹️ I pray you feel better real soon. It’s so difficult being pregnant and handling a toddler.
