When did this happen??!!!

[XKatX]

I just took a nice slow wander to the shop at the other end of the village. I always love this walk - it is beautiful and everyone is so chatty and friendly.
But today - IT KILLED ME!!!!
I have just got home and I feel sick, dizzy and swollen!! Admittedly, it is 30 degrees outside, but I had a large glass of water before I left, took a drink with me and finished it en-route. I am only 26 weeks and have a small bump, so what am I going to be like in a few weeks??!!!
I didn't even notice this change in my health happening - i always thought I was very fit!

Makes you feel like you've aged 30 years all of a sudden doesnt it!!

When I was 7 weeks, I had a performing gig in Washington, DC. We had just had a spring snow storm in Calgary, so I had been used to quite cold, dry weather. When we got to DC, it was 30C with intense humidity, and I had to perform several shows per day on an outdoor stage.
I thought I was going to keel over from the climate shock!
I was feeling so wretched (dizzy, sick, exhausted) that I just tossed the whole waiting-until-2nd-tri-to-tell-people out the window. The show must go on, but I was truly worried that I was going to pass out cold on stage. I figured that I'd better give everyone the heads up!
The next day, a wonderful rain storm dropped the temp by about 12 degrees and I perked right up.
So it can happen really early.

Yep I find that going up the 1 flight to my apartment is getting difficult!! Especially if I am carrying anything!!

I know how you feel. I didn't expect to be like that til nearer the end of my pregnancy! I feel sooo unfit! The heat is a killer tho, I constantly have to have a bottle of water with me if i'm walking anywhere, and then I have to plan it for a toilet stop!

 

[charliebear]

I'm so glad I've only got about 6 weeks of work left - its killing me!!!

Plus trying to sort our flat out to be baby and dog friendly (living in harmony - hopefully!) is blooming hard work.

I'm gonna be getting those cankles soon I'm sure!!! x
