Shortness of breath

Me too. I was also easily out of breath, especially during my 3rd trimester. Even when i am just walking or eating. I just try to do things slow and rest more. Also keep the surroundings cool. I also had acid reflux. It made me feel like something is always in my throat and affected my sleep. So I avoid spicy foods and sometimes I take tums (I checked with my gynae before, so do check with yours).

Hi Mummy, I am a premiee mum but I had the similar experience closure to my preterm labour. The Dr & Nurses at NUH suggested saline solution to be a safer choice to expel the phlegm / mucus. Just note that it didnt help me though. What helped me was plenty of hydration and steam inhalation. You can also try to get plenty of rest while keeping your head elavated while sleeping. Hope this helps.
