So cold!!

I was never a very hot or cold, just normal.  Once I became hyperthyroid I was HOT all the time, like I never wore jackets or sweaters or anything, I liked my house at 67, etc.  I am taking medicine so my thyroid is getting back to normal, so I would expect to not be hot anymore, but the last week or so I've been cold!  I will be 6wk tomorrow.  It started in mainly my hands and feet, my husband was the first to notice when I kept commenting on how warm his hands were and that they felt good.  Now the last few days I have just been COLD, I want a sweater and a blanket and a hot cup of tea, you know the drill.  (I live in Michigan, but that's not it because its still 55 here! (Global Warming)) I know your body begins to carry more blood in pregnancy, and I can imagine that a lot of that stays in your torso, causing cold hands and feet.  But what about over all cold? Anyone else feeling abnormally cold?

Re: So cold!!

  • I'm always cold but I'm especially cold lately. It has been colder here lately so I'm sure that has a bit to do with it too.

  • I'm usually always warm, but I've noticed I've been cold a lot lately! I though pregnant women are supposed to be warm!
  • I'm usually very temperature sensitive-my husband is good from a 100-40 degree Fahrenheit range but even when it's 70 I'm cold. The last few weeks though it has definitely become worse-I had hot flashes until I found out I was pregnant then definitely started feeling colder. I can't wait for spring!

    I've been told that the coldness is probably because my blood supply hasn't caught up yet and all the blood is going to help baby grow. I've been doing better the past few days so hopefully I'll get to feeling warm 24/7 soon!

    My mom has hypothyroidism so I think my PCP is going to check my levels just to be safe.
  • Me too!!! Esp hands and feet and esp at night when I'm going to bed
