2nd trimester symptoms ?

Second trimester now and almost everyday i have difficulty breathing.Any of you mummies have the same symptoms ? #SecondPregnancy

Yes, I feel so too. The increase in the hormone progesterone causes you to breathe more often which can look and feel like shortness of breath. This hormone expands your lung capacity, allowing your blood to carry large quantities of oxygen to your baby. As your pregnancy continues and the baby gets bigger, shortness of breath occurs as your growing uterus takes up more room in your belly. Your uterus pushes on and shifts other organs in your body. Around the 31st to 34th week of pregnancy, the uterus begins to press on the diaphragm (the flat muscle that moves up and down when you breathe). These changes may make it hard for your lungs to fully expand. This may cause more shallow breathing, and you may feel short of breath. What you can do - Sit or stand up straight. These positions give your lungs more room to expand. - Slow down. When you move more slowly, you lessen the work of your heart and lungs. - Lift your arms over your head. By taking pressure off your rib cage, you can breathe in more air. - Sleep propped up. To put less pressure on your lungs, prop up your upper body with pillows. I hope the above help you. Take good care, God bless you and your baby💙

14 weeks pregnant. Clingy toddler.

Hi mummies. This is my second pregnancy. My toddler is 30 months old now. Her behaviour started to change when I found out that I'm pregnant. She started to get so clingy and territorial. Idk if it's the terrible 2 phase. She gets upset so easily, crying out. Always wanting to be carried. She doesn't want to follow her daddy. She only wants mummy. My tummy started showing already and i have no choice but to carry her. She's getting heavier and I always have difficulty at times 😭 Even bathing , changing diapers , she only wants me. The other day I was having a really bad nausea & headache so I let her play with her grandparents but during bedtime, she started crying and don't want to sleep with them. My heart was breaking listening to her cries. We are travelling to Japan next week with my sister in-law + her husband. It's my girl's first flight. Idk what to expect. Idk how she'll behave. They offered to help me out when we are there but I doubt my girl will want to be entertained or even carried by them. Mummies, is it still safe for me to use sling carrier "gooseket" ? I'm scared that I'll put a lot of pressure on my shoulder & tummy... I don't know if it's okay to have another baby. To be honest, I'm exhausted physically and mentally. #advicepls #secondpregnancy

What you're going through sounds really exhausting, and it makes complete sense that you're feeling torn because carrying a clingy toddler while dealing with first trimester nausea is genuinely hard on the body. For the carrier question, it is worth checking with your gynae or midwife before the Japan trip, since every pregnancy is different and they can tell you whether your bump size and how you're feeling makes it safe to use. On the second baby worry, I think most mums hit that wall of doubt at some point, especially in the first trimester when everything feels heavy, and many find it does get more manageable once the pregnancy progresses and your toddler slowly adjusts to the new normal.
