As if being pregnant fat and breathless cos your lungs are being squashed isn't enough.... I then get a bloody chest infection. Today will be spent drinking more honey and lemon and taking my antibiotics. At the moment apart from coughing half my lung up baby is not happy one bit being shoved about and I've dislodged her out my pelvis painfully coughing that hard! Thankfully the doctor took it very seriously, as I've ended up in hospital with one of these pregnant at 38 weeks before and was very ill.
I'm due to start my bi daily sweeps in 13 days anyway. With induction shortly there after. So I need to hope and pray I don't spend these last few weeks coughing. It's hurting my ribs now and turning into a tickly cough too. Feel like I'm gonna cough her out and she will go flying across the room atm lol. I can't even sleep as I keep coughing loads. I've just been laying here bored @sara-lou
It's hard when you have another child as well as you can't fully recover in bed. I had it just before Christmas & luckily Morgan goes to the same nursery I work in. I sent him in so I could have a couple days in bed! I think I was only 10weeks & I was paranoid it was going to affect the baby but thankfully it was just me! Maybe she'll want to come out sooner rather than later!
I'll be in bed resting till my daughter finishes nursery today. Downed a fresh smoothie just now and some honey and lemon and off to sweat in bed lol
I'm sorry to hear this @suzie80 and thinking of you hopefully you'll get over it in no time.
Yeah I have to say I feel awful. I'm sweating and my heart is racing as I'm so breathless and my lungs hurt. Not to mention I'm rattling like a rattle snake on my left lung so my body keeps trying to cough a lot to get rid. Which is killing my throat and making baby like she is in a washing machine atm. She's not been a happy bunny this morning and is going mad as she got shoved from where she was laying to up higher, which is only making my breathing worse :(
Yeh it's impossible to get comfy. Then if by some miracle you do, you get a coughing fit. I pulled so many muscles I thought I cracked a rib at one point because I heard a pop & I struggled to breath in & out. I couldn't lift my arms or bend without being in horrendous pain. My husband had to dress me! But they did an x-ray & said there was nothing just a chest infection. Was bloody awful. Cross fingers for you you start to feel better soon!
