shortness of breath and slight pains

[loza]

Hi all

around six weeks ago i noticed slight pains in my chest on my left side. And when i spoke with my midwife she asked if they were accompanied by shortness of breath. Which at the time they weren't and to be honest they aren't frequent chest pains i'd say i get odd days when I feel them. Wheni first started getting them they felt like stabbing pains and were in my left side. But now they can be anywere across my chest and cause me to take a deep breath when feeling them, but don't get me wrong they are not agony painful hance why I'm typing on here and not telling the hospital!. My partner gets quite angry with me when I don't want to waste doctor's or midwifes time with these things, but I really don't want to appear a moaner with nothing wrong. The reason why I have decided to write now is im not experiencing much pain today although im sat at my desk and feeling short of breath, constantly tired and very thirsty! I feel as though im being deprived of enough oxygen and feel as though i have to remind myself to breath a little faster.
I hope you can understand all this I've wrote it as though I'm speaking to you!!!

Thanks xxxxx

You're describing some symptoms that were on 'This Morning', it's called fatty liver symdrome, which affects pregnant women and baby.

Please go and see about it!

Good Luck honey x x x x

I have been told that I should be drinking around 3 litres of water a day. You will probably find those glasses of water add to around this amount which isnt in excess if youve always enjoyed a few glasses.
Good luck at your appointment though.
