Lately even climbing few stairs leaves me breathless, im in third trimester now. It feels like baby is pushing up and i cant take a full breath. How do u all manage this?
Haan ye toh hota hai na, baby grows and there's less room for lungs. Open window, fresh air, thoda slow chalo. Sleeping slightly propped up helped me a lot.
Mild breathlessness is normal but please be alert. If it comes on suddenly, with chest pain, fast heartbeat or swelling, dont wait, call your doctor. I had to get checked once and I'm glad I did.
Girl I get out of breath just walking to the kitchen these days, baby is sitting right under my ribs apparently. Slowing down and sitting upright helps me. We're basically carrying a whole human, no wonder.
Breathlessness is super common as baby grows and pushes up. Sit up straight, dont slouch, and prop yourself with extra pillows when sleeping. Going slow on stairs also helps, no need to rush.
My doctor okayed gentle breathing exercises for me, slow deep breaths in through nose. Really helps when I feel tight. But check with your gynac before starting anything, especially if you have any condition.
