Im around 8 weeks and sometimes just climbing stairs makes me feel out of breath. Earlier i never had this. Did anyone else feel breathless this early or is it just me?
Yes, breathlessness can start early on because of hormonal shifts. Since I had a PCOS history, I was always extra cautious, so I asked my doctor about it. She assured me it's normal but advised not to push myself too hard physically.
My cousin who recently conceived also told me she felt out of breath quite early. It seems to be a very common early symptom because of the body changes. Please take plenty of rest and don't exert yourself.
I completely understand how terrifying it feels when you can't catch your breath, I used to panic thinking something is wrong. Please know that this is a very common hormonal reaction in early pregnancy. Just sit quietly, try some slow breathing, and if you ever feel too anxious, just call your doctor to reassure yourself.
Yes, it happens because of progesterone hormone changes in the very beginning. Don't panic, just sit down and take deep breaths when it happens. But if it's too much or you feel dizzy, then go see your gynac.
I felt a bit out of breath even while walking short distances in my first trimester. It is actually quite common as the body is working hard to produce more blood. Just slow down your pace and enjoy the journey!
I remember feeling so overwhelmed by how quickly my body was changing, including that scary breathless feeling. It is completely valid to feel worried, but it is usually just your hormones at work. Sending you a big hug, you are doing great.
Haan na, I also used to feel breathless even while climbing just a few stairs! Mere saath bhi yahi hota tha, body is adjusting to so many hormones. Relax karo, and thoda slow walk kiya karo.
Arey, don't stress too much about this! Your body is literally making a whole new blood supply, so it’s normal to feel a bit winded. Just sit back, sip some water, and don't do heavy chores for a while.
