Since few days im feeling super weak and tired, even climbing stairs makes me breathless. Period is slightly late too. We are trying so my mind is going there. Could this be an early sign or am i just reading too much?
Yes, feeling extremely weak can be an early sign due to hormonal changes. Please take plenty of rest and listen to your body. If you feel any dizzy spells, please speak to your doctor immediately.
Yes, your body is doing so much work inside, so weakness is totally normal! Just sleep as much as you can and keep a positive mind. It gets much better once the second trimester starts.
Yes, the surge in progesterone levels in early pregnancy causes blood pressure to drop, making you feel weak and tired. My doctor told me it's very common in the first trimester, but do get your Hb levels checked.
Beta, weakness is very common early on because your body is working hard to grow the baby. Drink fresh coconut water and eat soaked almonds every morning. If it gets too severe, tell your doctor.
Oh absolutely! In my first few weeks, I felt so weak I couldn't even stand up to make tea. It's completely normal because of the hormones. Keep small snacks like biscuits nearby and eat every two hours.
I felt so drained during my early weeks and mentioned it to my obstetrician during my visit. They ran a few blood tests to check my iron levels. Do mention it to your doctor so they can prescribe the right vitamins.
