Visiting the ladies more than usual

Your little Happy Event has now grown, and the room in your belly has become quite constricted for them. You will find that you need to go to the toilet more often than usual. Part of the reason may be because your baby head is pushing down on your bladder which will require you to run to the bathroom serval times during the day and night.

Shortness of Breath
