Question

Anyone else struggling to do the things that always were a breeze before? I'm 30 + 5 and literally can hardly do anything before I have to sit down before I fall down! Thought I'd clean the kitchen, all I've done is take a few bits out of a cupboard, washed up and wiped the surfaces down...I'm now sat on the sofa chugging down water to make myself feel better! I had my routine bloods done at 28 weeks and they called me last week to say that my iron levels are very low so I'm now on iron tablets. They also said b12 and folate levels are low and that I have too many anti bodies in my system from being rh neg blood group (I've had the injection) could any of this be why I feel like this? Or is it just common now in the third trimester? I never felt like this when I was pregnant with my son 6 years ago!

Answer

I'm 28 weeks today, and yesterday, I started getting pain in my artificial hip. I've gone from being able to waddle around, to only managing short distances before my hip goes and I can't walk anymore. Oh, and forget stairs!

Everything makes me out of breath, I can't bend over and pick things off the floor, and I am sweating something chronic all the time D:

I do feel pretty disgusting lately...

Answer

Iron alone will make a massive difference. I was low in iron and feeling exactly like you and within a week of supplements I'm feeling at least 70% better. Still get tired and have to take it easy but it's made a huge difference.

Answer

This is my third pregnancy and they are all very, very different. With my son I was enormous,  gained almost 100lbs just to have a 7lb 4 oz baby. With my daughter I didn't even start showing til I was 33 weeks and was 132 lbs.. gained 32lbs in the last 7 weeks. That pregnancy was a BREEZE. Only issue i had was sleeping,  i had to sleep in a recliner. I would do It over and over again. Now this one... never again. Lol. Morning sickness up until 22 weeks, and then still atleast once a week til this day. Can't breathe to save my life. Braxton hicks already. And so much round ligament pain. I haven't gained but 6 lbs, but I feel like a balloon lol
