Hi All

I am having restlessness & sinking feelings in my heart. It lasts all day & so bad that diffcult to concentrate on any thing. I am trying to drink cold things, but after few minutes its back.
please help me friends.
Anu, as you were talking about sleeping on right side, i also feel almost same. I feel as if i am making the baby uncomfortable. sometimes i get the same feeling at left side too, that time right side seems fine. But turning side is so painful. I have started feeling little swelling in my feet too, sandals are getting a little tighter. swelled feet looks cute to me though till there is not much problem :-)
I have doc's appointment on thursday, impatiently waiting for that, hope to hear some weight gain here too. I am checking it regularly at home, but don't trust my scale as much.

WELCOMES

It seems we have one more girl to welcome.. it wasn't me with 'terrible backpain'. so there is one more Manisha.. Welcome Manisha to this board, atleast let us know your due date.

Manisha

Manisha replied. Hi friends

I'll increase my intake of water, lemonade, and buttermilk. hope it will help. also i m just drinking chilled stuff, otherwise i throw up, I guess its the heat only. I was never that sensitive to heat before, but now i should be careful. I am going for evening walks, but just 15 mins. I am walking slow also otherwise i start panting. Are you all able to walk fast?

Thanks for your support, it has become so necessary now :-)
Manisha Ritu replied. I am feeling the same way . I think its the heat .I make lots of Nimbu pani with Ice and keep drinking during the day . My feet havent swelled up yet but I am spending many jumping jack nights becoz of leg cramps . I am also reading the book you had suggested \"; What to expect when you are expecting \"; .
Take care and think positive only 3 and half months left !!!
Ritu Anu replied. Hi Manisha,

I too feel restlessness at the end of the day. Probably it is because of hot weather. As Manvi and Manisha said, we need to drink plenty of water.

Also it might be because we are not getting good sleep due to baby movements. If u r not getting good sleep, try to take warm bath and drink milk before you go to sleep. When you think you are feeling moody, switch on some nice music or go for a walk in the evenings with your hubby. Discuss about your baby and think all about baby. I am sure thinking about baby will definitly make you feel better.

I hope this helps. Don't worry about your weight gain at all. As long as your doc is ok with your weight gain, you should not worry about it.

Take care and Cheer up,
Anu.
manvi replied. iam confused u mean it wasn't u recently with back pain?how do we differentiate the 2 Manisha's?
You do sound low probably not sleeping well or some change in your routine.
Are u breathless from weakness or not drinking enuff.the weather is hot now &so we r prone to dehydration.i wld advice all of u to drink lime juice&buttermilk regularly even if not too thirsty.
Manisha hope the scale shows good #,i gained 4lbs in a mth my doc was happy.Overall i look healthy&have a belly haven't bloated to a huge size as most people do!
Cheer up&do take care.. Uma replied. Hi Manisha,
I don't know much about why u r feeling this way,but i hope u r taking good rest,fresh air,and having lost of water.Also do u go for walks or not if not start going in the evening for a while.
Lest also wait for rest of our friends suggestions and don't worry at all about ur less weight gain.
No wonder i was also thinking that u r sounding little quiet all these days.
Take care,
Uma
