I thought I would see if any of you have had the same symptoms. It used to happen mainly in the evenings but now it is all day... I get shortness of breath, and a weak, achy feeling in my arms and legs... worse in my arms- in fact this feeling is constant through out the dayi but sometimes I also feel sort of anxious and almost like I will faint or fall asleep?!!
I have read about Supine Hypotension so am thinking this could be it? Some relief if I lean forward (even sitting up is worse) It happens if I am a passenger in a car... maybe its because I am sitting on a decline slightly?
Really not a fun feeling... Started at about 26 weeks.

I had weak arms during my pregnancy, prob caused by carpal tunnel type thing...I had tennis elbow so have problems there already! But didn't have any of those other problems.

Carpal tunnel type stuff is inclined to flare up during pregnancy if that sounds like you.
