Why is my heart racing when I'm just sitting on the couch?!

Question

I feel so incredibly unfit. Panting when I walk up a flight of stairs. Is this normal? 34 weeks along...

Answer

It's from the increase in blood circulation a slack of space for your lungs. I was really fit before I got pregnant and now I can't walk across the room without getting winded. 5 more weeks.

Answer

You have a 75% higher blood volume and a decreased lung capacity now. It's not your fitness level, don't worry!

Answer

I usually have spells like that when I'm dehydrated.

Answer

I've been up and down stairs for weeks this week at 35 weeks is like extra hard so tired and puffed when I get to the top

Answer

I feel the same! 35+1. I don't get winded super easily but when I lay down, sometimes it feels like my heart is beating hard and really fast! My pulse is normal though when I check it. I don't know what it is. Have you tried checking your pulse when it happens to you?

Answer

That happened to me earlier with my hubbz at El Nopal. -_-

Answer

Me too, I can't seem to catch my breath
