    Anyone else find you're breathless quite a bit? Not surprising with the amount of weight on front, but annoying all the same!

    I live somewhere with a really big hill, and work at the top of it. If I want to go to the main shops or need to go to a meeting at another site, I have to tackle the hill.... I struggled walking up it when not pregnant, but now I'm really finding it hard, and having lots of rest stops. I keep getting overtaken by Grannies with walking sticks :rotfl:

    Going to make the Christmas cake today. Hopefully that'll be more successful than yesterday's banana bread attempt, which refused to rise and is a dense slightly burnt lump instead - but just about edible... :D

    Yep I am, especially if I am walking somewhere and try to talk, I feel like a really unfit couch potatoe that smokes 50 a day, not good!

    Had it quite early on and went to the docs as I wasnt sure if it was my hayfever and its just baby taking up so much room and laying where he shouldn't.

    So cross, neighbours woke me up going out at 05.30, then coming back at 06.30 and bringing half their church with them, then someone using a chainsaw well before ten o clock, i mean...... its sunday for gods sake!!!!!!:mad: Not that I'm grumpy and tired or anything.

    I've been funny with my food the whole way through jenjade, i have days when I only eat cereal, bad I know, Or I can really really fancy something and I'll cook a couple of portions of it, I'll eat one and the other will stay in the fridge until I chuck it out as I cant eat it. Its crazy, I drink tons of milk and love cold apples but thats about it, I think it's just your body adjusting.

    missymoo i am just like that i drink loads and loads of milk so i have tried cutting it out and seeing if my appetite increases but it doesnt make any difference. I am tired all the time which is probably due to not eating enough

    I'm the same with food as well. Somedays i barely feel like eating anything, some days i could eat a house, some days i can only fancy specific things, other days i would eat anything in front of me. Utterly bizarre. But the days i can only manage ice cream for dinner are quite frequent at the moment!

    Lirin Don't be daft, I don't think it was me over doing it or anything, just had an off day and night I think. Lovely to meet you too :)

    I'm planning a blast of house work today, hopefully it will tire me out and I'll actually want to sleep tonight. Fingers crossed.

    R.e the food, I was like that last night, spent ages making a lovely big dinner and couldn't eat any of it, was such a waste. Ended up stuffing myself full or McCoys and Smarties later though, nice and healthy :eek:

    That is me exactly!

    And I've been breathless for about the past 5 weeks. I have t climb 4 flights of stairs at work to get to our office (we have no lift) and I feel like I am dying by the time I get to the top.

    We've got a parenting class at our hospital this afternoon, so hopefully I will learn how to take care of a baby as I suddenly realised a few weeks ago that I actually have no idea how to do that ....... :eek:

    32 weeks today :j
