Up until a week ago I felt totally normal. All of a sudden my back hurts and at times I feel like I'm having trouble breathing. Really makes me wonder how I'm going to feel 20 pounds from now.
Yup, I started to feel like an old lady at 22wks. I'm now 27wks and I huff and puff going up and down the stairs! I was just trying to print off the 'birth plan' and my printer is on the floor so I sat down to make sure the paper was going in (not grabbing 2pieces at once) and when I saw it was okay I got back up and was huffing and puffing. My lovely husband started laughing and called me an old lady. By the time 38wks rolls around I'm just going to sleep on the couch and not torture myself with stairs!
I started feeling like an old lady around 17-18 weeks! I'm breathing a little better lately, but now I have a lot of trouble getting up off the couch lol.
I hear you!! and I had to go buy support hose today (But they really were a godsend and I didn't get super faint once while shopping and wearing them!! YAY!)
