How to overcome shortness of breath during pregnancy?
Im in my 7th month and even climbing few stairs leaves me out of breath yaar. Sitting normally bhi sometimes I feel like I cant get full air. Doc said baby is pushing up but anyone got tips that actually helped?
Oh ho, with twins, I felt like I was running a marathon just by walking to the kitchen! Honestly, the only thing that helped was pillows, lots of them, to prop myself up while sleeping. Take it slow, u are literally growing human beings, so let the house be messy for a bit.
Arey beta, ghabrao mat. Hamaare yahan kehte hain jab baccha badhta hai toh saas lene me thodi dikkat hoti hai. Thoda sa khuli hawa mein baitho aur ghee ya makhan thoda kam karke halka khana khao taaki bhaari na lage. Bohot warmth bhej rahi hoon.
With GD, I had to be super careful about what I ate so that there wasnt extra weight gain putting pressure. Heavy meals always made my breathing worse, so I switched to small, low-carb snacks throughout the day. Please make sure you track your sugar if you feel breathless after eating sweet stuff.
Actually, I read about this online. The hormone progesterone expands our lung capacity, but later the growing baby pushes the diaphragm up. My doctor said doing simple deep breathing exercises and keeping your posture upright helps a lot. If you ever feel dizzy with it, please check with your doctor immediately.
I completely understand this discomfort. I had such bad nausea that taking deep breaths made me throw up even more! I found that sitting under a slow fan and taking tiny sips of ginger water helped settle both things. Keep your back straight, it really gives some space to your lungs.
Beta, isme darna nahi hai, jab pet badhta hai toh thoda saans phoolna normal hai. Aap seedhe baitha karo aur thoda dheere chalo. Subah shaam halki walk karo aur thoda sa chest pe warm towel compression try karo agar tightness lage, par zyada takleef ho toh seedha gynac ko dikhao.
