Anyone out of breath? ALL the time?!?

It's so crazy being 16 weeks & out of breath ALL the time!! Anyone else?! I feel like a fat beer belly man!!

  • Me, and I'm 3 weeks behind you! I kept running out of breath while teaching a 15 minute lesson to my 3rd graders. It's nuts.

  • Wow, I'm glad somebody else feels like this (no offense!) But yes, I walk through the house and become short of breath, FAST! Part of me feels like it's my stuffiness, my nose has been stuffed for 2 or 3 weeks, not a cold, just stuffy. But yes, I feel like my heart is giving out on me :( poor me lol
  • All the time! I get out of breath teaching my kinder kids. I can't handle this! My husband thought something was seriously wrong with me because I had to take a break while trying on clothes. The stuffy nose is getting me this week too, and saline spray does crap!

  • I'm having the same thing. At work when I'm talking sometimes I have to excuse myself and tell people I need to catch my breath...people who don't know I'm pregnant probably think I'm nuts. And at home just doing everyday things, I feel like I just ran a marathon. So wierd, didn't have it this bad with my son.

  • I feel like I can never catch my breath or breathe deeply enough whenever I am leaning forward. And then when I notice I am having trouble breathing I sit back and it takes a good 10 minutes to go away. I'm a pretty physically fit person too, so I don't know why this happens other than everything is just getting squished in there.

  • And the sad news.... It just get harder.  I'm at 21 weeks and constantly feel like I am trying to catch my breath.. even when just sitting still...to top it off I have terrible allergies.

  • I'm out of breath like a crazy woman. Poor DH looks at me like I'm a nut-job. I bet I'm a major snorer, too. But thus far... no complaints from DH.

  • Me! And I started having trouble at around 15 weeks. I have a  really short torso and very petite. I think that's my biggest problem.

    I've wondered if that is part of my issue... I'm 5'1" and I'm sure with the LO growing there isn't much room!

  • My husband makes fun of the fact that I am always huffing and puffing so yes, I totally get the out of breath thing.

  • I was completely out of breath, and I would keep trying to yawn to fill my lungs and I could never get them filled up. Turned out I had pregnancy induced asthma. Now I use an preventative inhaler everyday, and I can breathe like a champ.

  • Yep! My OB said it's normal..I feel like all my organs are pushing up and I have no room left to breathe..lol..I literally feel a soreness right under my breasts, like my ribs are heading north..Take it easy and don't try to do too much either..When I do too much it's worse..or if I talk a lot..lol..
  • I was at Target today and talking on the phone, I had to stop and sit down because all the walking and talking was making it too hard to breathe!  I feel like an idiot because I'm only 20 weeks and I think people look at me like wow can't even walk and talk....but it's too hard!! :)

  • OMG for awhile now this has been happening and it's SO embarassing and sometimes a little scary!! We have stares in our office and every day it's a struggle and takes me so much time!

  • YES and rapid heartbeat at times.  It's because of increased blood circulation.  Totally normal.
