Symptoms: Had my first pregnancy hot flash... I did not care for it one bit! We were at a christmas concert and I all of a sudden got very parched and SO hot. I looked at Andrew with a look of terror in my eyes. He asked if I wanted him to go get water, I couldn't get yes out fast enough! I was afraid if I stood up I would pass out! Poor guy had to search everywhere for water... Thank goodness he is the best and came back with bottled water in hand :)
