Shortness of breath in third trimester

Official 31 weeks! I’ve had a week of feeling so short of breath pretty much all day and it’s much worse after eating. Anyone else experiencing this? I’m assuming my baby is super high up pushing on my diaphragm but until now I haven’t had any issues breathing like I do now. Any tips on how to manage it would be super helpful!

  • Keep your meals small... and wait... baby will eventually drop and you will have some more air. I've been struggling the same. Our air has been really heavy with wildfire smoke and so it's been a struggle for a few weeks in addition to the baby crowding me.
