…. Last night my air conditioner broke….I came home it was running fine… I actually turned it down because it was a little chilly in here biggest mistake I ever made…. It never came on since… you can hear it trying to run but the fan refuses to move… okay I can live with out heat I can not with out air…. Every since I had a heat stroke when I was a kid heat and I don’t get along…I need to worry about Nate he has asthma and the heat always makes it worst… I have taken probably 6 cold showers today sat 1 ft from my fan going full blast constantly spraying myself with ice water… and cried…. Yes me I cried over the heat I am so hormonal lol I went and sat in Wal-Mart for about 2 hours to get some ac lol…Lol I refused to cook because it was to hot… I been cranky okay down right mean lol and to top it off I woke up this morning and I had no feet…. My feet have always been the thinnest part of my body… nice thin feet…. now? They are mounds of swollen flesh that are achy and throbbing…. You can not even see my ankle bones… my toes no longer touch the ground…. They are little fat sausages…

Does anyone air conditioning knowledge? Please come fix my ac!!! I would sell anything I have except my kids lol… (you notice I don’t mention Frankie) lol

Des - I'm sure you already know this, but it's SUPER IMPORTANT not to get overheated while pregnant. Do whatever you can (sounds like you have)to stay cool and maybe ask your OB about this as well! Get the AC fixed quick!

No sweat! It could be a compressor, but likely just needs freon. Just call the air conditioning co and get it fixed. It will probably take 10 minutes! The reason people in warm climates have routine servicing (to avoid problems).
