Is it because I''m pregnant that I seem to be having hot flushes?

Yes. These too are quite common in pregnancy and has to do with increased levels of the hormone progesterone in your bloodstream which makes your blood vessels open up (dilate). Also don''t forget that you have a separate energy producing unit living inside you which is producing its own heat all the time! Hot flushes cannot be prevented, but wearing loose clothing is a solution where layers can be removed as necessary.
