shortness of breath?

[Geegees]

Im only 12 weeks and already getting really short of breath really easily! Just got out of puff from walking up the stairs!! Im usually really fit!
Is this normal so early??

Yep- I read that your blood supply is doubling. I also get out of breath faster than normal.... try not to overdo it.

Same boat with the shortness of breath. I think our bodies are just working overtime.

Yeah same here - and walking up the stairs at work is such a HASSLE! Which is a pain 'cause that's where our store room and office is

Yep, shortness of breath here, too!

Yep! It's a little worse for me now. Waking up and down stairs takes it completely out of me lol

 

[EmzyJA]

Me too! I also have a cough right now which isn't helping me :-/ don't remember this with my last pregnancy and we lived in flats back then up stairs. This time I've definitely noticed it
