I completely relate to you ladies! The last few days I find myself gasping for air. Another problem I have however is an extreme pain under the right side of my ribs where I actually can move a hard lump in and out. However, I had the problem before and the doctors took 22 weeks before they realized that there was a baby inside me! I even had a colonoscopy done (including x-rays and camera inside me) when I was 16 weeks and nobody could see a baby. I had heavy periods then though. Now I have missed my periods for three months (the two previous were really light) and all the urine and blood tests come out negative. I went and saw another doctor (female) who suggested that I needed to get an ultrasound. So that is what I am doing tomorrow. So wish me luck on that. I had a friend tell me yesterday that on her friend's second pregnancy, she thought she had cancer because of a growing lump on her side, all tests were negative. Finally an ultrasound showed she was 5 months pregnant. These things seem to happen more than doctors admit. I'll let you all know tomorrow what the ultrasound shows up. Good luck to you all. By the way, Gaviscon works really well for heartburn and is safe to use during pregnancy.
