feeling like my bodys breaking down

for the past week i will eat something and my body will feel all shaky inside and make me feel sick and ill test my blood sugar and it is fine.. but yet i feel shaky inside and sometimes its hard to take breaths. and then the past almost week ive gotten bad headaches, hella freakin dizzy past few days, and i keep having shooting pains.

oh, and i feel like a smurfing whale is sitting on my chest at times.

I just feel like im breaking down :'(

Welcome to pregnancy. That is all normal. How's your blood pressure? If its normal then sorry, that's how ir is in the end, especially once you have already had a baby. It doesn't get easier each consecutive pregnancy honestly.

My second and third pregnancies were horrible. Third was the worst. Id call your doctor and go to L&D honestly. You need ti be tested for Pre-e

i talked to a nurse at l&d and she said im not swelling so its not pre-e.. but honestly i think you dont have to have all the symptoms.. but hse said theres nothing can really do and just to get tested at my apt on tuesday

No no no no. I had to be tested at 36 weeks because I was getting dizzy, nauseous, headaches and my blood pressure shot up. While at the hospital I went into preterm labor a second time. You do not have to swell to have preeclampsia. Some women don't even have high blood pressure. And you need to know ASAP if you have it because it can cause seizures. Id be reporting that woman. She's obviously an idiot.

yea she wsa very insistent that i dont come in, that just take tylenol and if my headaches dont get better to make a doctors apt. but its like umm i had pre-e with my last child you guys should be a little more careful about what your telling me =/

If you've had it before id get checked and not wait. My doctor always told me better safe than sorry.

I got told that my blood pressure had to be high to have pre eclampsia but i have all the other symptoms of it, my hands and feet are swollen, and my face in the morning, i been getting dizzy and seeing spots, i even had protein in my urine at my appointment last week and they didnt seem concerned at all, and my blood pressure my whole life has ran 84/67 or real close to that and the last 2 weeks it went up to 120/87 and they dont seem to worry because its not high enough maybe i should get a second opionion
