lfb, I m facing similar problems as well. I have to sit down more regularly now and take deep slow breathing. Like u, used to be a super energizer bunny, exercising twice a week and clocking inhumane hours at work, plus doing housework alone everyweek! Stamina is just not there now.
Went to see gynae this morning to review my detailed scan results. All is well as BB is about the median range for most measurements, weighing about 290gm. EDD kinda shifted to 21 Jun but doc say it's just an estimation, still within the same week. Was talking to doc that I am suffering from more freq giddy spells, even when I was lying down. I am also feeling super sleepy for the past week. If not for work and check up today, I think I will still be in bed. She said it's normal that mummies at this stage has a dip in their blood pressure which she observed in mine. Since I have marginal haemoglobin count at the last blood test, she decided to put me on iron tabs every alternate days, though she thinks it may not cure my tiredness. Now I must find ways to get a seat on the train every morning before I feel giddy. sighz. It's not always that I can meet nice, kind and considerate souls. One caucasian guy let me had his seat last fri evening on the train. Thank goodness he did that for the train seems to be driven by a first timer, jerking all the way and even make two jam brakes. I would have fall if not for my bum on the seat. I was feeling bad motion sickness after that train ride.
11_beans, ya, I hope BB won't do such violent kicks n punches that I feel pain. Oredi feeling more of him lately and realizes how active he is.
Shelisa, I have heard of Forever living pdts and had tried them before for detox. Reason for trying was to find out if it helps my eczema which some ppl told me could be caused by toxins that my body couldn't flush out. But my body had terrible reactions to it and on the second day, I had severe diarrhea and vomiting that I was given a jab by GP. GP said if I came in later by another hour, he needs to send me to hospital to be put on drip. My other fren tried their pdts last month to lose her pregnancy wt. she managed to lose all within a month without having the reactions I am having. I have checked with their consultants who insisted that my reaction is normal and I should have persisted through and I will be fine thereafter. But seriously, I was near to the brink of gg to hospital and am not gg to consider their pdts in the future.
