Jittery and feeling out of it!?

Anyone else feel this way?? I feel jittery from the inside out and feels like I've LITERALLY lost my mind!! I'm 31 wks today. I called my OB and she said drink plenty of water and stay hydrated!

Re: Jittery and feeling out of it!?

  • I'm right there with you! I have moments when I'm feeling fine, but then others where I just feel a mess inside. I feel out of it, and like I'm not making coherent sentences. I've been lucky to have a fairly easy pregnancy thus far, but my third trimester has definitely been the worst part of it. Yuck.

  • @kateamart yes!! I feel like when I'm talking, things are all jumbled in my brain and doesn't make sense coming out!! And have been jittery feeling since Saturday. Not sure what that's about, O and the unrelentless dizziness in the third trimester. It's awful!!!! I have so much that needs to be done and can't do any of it, feeling like this!
  • I had the same feelings you discribed. Jittery, couldn't concentrate and was always feeling dizzy ... I ended up having gestational diabetes :( I'm hoping the change in diet and not having as many sugar spikes will make all this go away!
  • @jgillis13 maybe that's what's causing my problems!? I go for my testing Thurs! Were u jittery and dizzy most all day and night?! And I basically feel out of it 24/7 too!?!
  • Yes! All the time.
  • @laurexx mine has been constant since Saturday! :/

    :( it's definitely not a fun feeling I've been feeling this way a week or so.
  • @BabyShirah yes for the most part I felt out of it or just not like myself all the time. I passed the test with flying colours at 26 or 27 weeks whenever I took it the first time. Around 32 weeks I started feeling off and at my 34 week appointment last week they found sugar in my urine so I had to go retake the 1 hour test, I failed that and went yesterday for the three hour test and just barely failed it but that still makes me have GD. Thankfully I only have 5.5 weeks to go because it's only been 2 days and I'm miserable! But I know it will all be worth it when I have my baby in my arms !
  • @jgillis13 I feel so bad, I'm scared to go take the test feeling so out of it. Scared I won't be able to sit there long enough without needing to lay down. I have 9 more weeks and I def can't handle feeling this way the rest of the time!
  • @babyshirah I will keeps fingers crossed for you that you don't have it and that you start to feel better soon :) but if you do have GD it's better to know and keep you and baby as healthy as possible. I've even noticed a difference today with not being as dizzy... I'm cranky because I have the worlds biggest sweet tooth haha but I've been feeling a little more like myself and I'm hopeful that as I get better with controlling my blood sugar levels I will feel even better :)
  • @jgillis13 glad to hear you are feeling better! I'll be almost 32 wks when they do my GD test. So hopefully we will get some answers and I can start feeling back to myself!
  • Not jitters, but I get heart palpitations and today I broke out in sweat like I was post-menopausal. I'm just trying to roll with all the hormonal bursts... If you think it could be GD, you could try cutting out all sugar and white flour/rice, and eat more veggies and protein.
