Difficulty Breathing!

Hi ladies!  Happy Monday!

Today I'm having a hard time breathing, and not just "I feel like I climbed a million flights of stairs" hard time breathing, but I feel like "there's something heavy sitting on my chest" hard time breathing.

Today's been a little stressful for me, so I'm wondering if what I'm experiencing is normal, due to the stress, or should I be calling my mw.

Thoughts?  Thanks!

    I have it all the time and it sucks. All your organs are crowding your lungs :( I don't think it's necessary to call your MW.

    I'm getting this at night a lot now...scary feeling, but I think it's just LO's position and the fact that all of your organs are being squished together ;)

    I have that all the time.  I can walk 10 steps and just feel like a rock is on my chest.  I think it is normal.  If it is still worring you on your next appointment just mention it to your MW.

    Yup, basically all the time for the last two weeks.  Doc says it's normal because all the organs are squashed.  I've had a relatively symptom free pregnancy but this sucks a big one.

    Thanks everyone!  I just waited it out, and after a night of sleep (though I feel like I was up all night!), that heavy feeling is gone and I'm breathing normal again.  I guess it was baby after all!  :)
