Q: Just Because I Can.

Hey ladies... As i'm having a crappy day, I thought i'd ask you how you're all coping through your pregnancies.. So how is everyone today? =)

i'm experiencing quite bad breathlessness at the moment, it's very uncomfortable.. And I was feeling sick before =( so much for getting over my all-day sickness.

Sorry if I seem whingy.. But i'm allowed to be sometimes, it's a pregnant lady's prerogative!

Oh god I remember the breathlessness - it really freaked me out sometimes because I am asthmatic so I would be thinking, "is this an asthma attack or just the pregnancy?"

it got better for me once my baby 'dropped' into my pelvis though so hopefully it will be the same for you.

I'm feeling super tired. It doesn't help having 2 babies under one and a half to look after :roll:

Oh god. With me, it was either I can walk or I can talk. I can't do both at the same time. If I was walking, I wasn't talking. If I was talking I wasn't walking!! I'd sound like I was running a marathon...And I was only 4 months!! Lol...People were like what's wrong...And I had to catch my breth before I answered.

Just wait until your baby's body heat has a huge affect on you!! I had the air on soooo cold and when I came home from the hospital, I was like dmn, it's freezing in here!!!! Lol....But I wasn't lugging around 20lbs worth of extra weight all the time!!

Awww sounds like you had it pretty rough, .Sarah.. Poor you! You got a beautiful baby girl at the end of it though, so more than worth it! =)

i'm in a slightly better mood now.. My uncle came round before and he congratulated me on becoming a mum, and he said I was gunna make a great mother, which I thought was really sweet of him. Plus I have hot chocolate.. Which always improves my mood.


My lil kick boxer is reeeeally active tonight, she's never been this violent before! I s'pose I better get used to it really.. It's only gunna get worse from now on!
