Breathless, elevated heartrate

in March 2014 Moms

Anyone else feeling this?  I feel like my heart is pounding and I have been out of breath so much lately.  Im not even doing anything, just sitting at my desk.  I figure this is a common pregnancy complaint, but at some point is it a problem? 

Im freakin exhausted today too.  Being at work just sucks.  My husband told me just to sit and not walk around too much, but the last time I asked someone just to deliver an interoffice for me I got the response "I managed to have four kids without slacking at MY job".  It made me cry, so now I just suck it up and don't ask for favors

    Wow, what a bitch. I'm often breathless and was during my last pregnancy as well. Just take it as easy as you can and ignore rude bitches.

    This happens to me frequently, and my doctor said it's normal.  I would ask if you're concerned about it, though.  I would also ignore rude comments by co-workers.

    I would ignore the comments as well...but remember it is good to get up and move around as opposed to sitting all day. I notice a distinct difference in how stiff and achy I am if I sit for long periods versus just getting up and moving around. And yes, the pounding heart thing happens to me a lot too...along with dizziness. If you truly feel very out of breath though and your heart is racing, I would definitely mention it to your dr!

    I get this sometimes too. I was going to ask my Dr. on Thursday but from what I have read it seems pretty common.

    and your coworker is a B!

    Thanks guys - I figure its normal, but I'm so tired and hormonal it's like I don't know anything any more.  For no reason I've been teary eyed all day, and I've only been here an hour!  It's going to be a long day.

    And yes, that one is known for being a bitch.  The only good thing that came of that whole scene was that everyone continues to talk shit about it!

    What a bitch! At least the rest of your office seems to be standing by you.  

    My heart felt like it was racing on the way to work this morning and I have definitely been out of breath a lot more lately.  Just take it easy and get up and move when you can.

    My heart tends to race/I can't catch my breath when I'm in certain positions - i.e. laying back even slightly on the couch and when I'm in the car. I asked my OB this morning and she said heart palpitations are normal, but if you are having extreme difficulty breathing to go to the ER (obviously.)
