The shortness of breath is out of control now

I can no longer comfortable lay flat, even on my side.  I wake up constantly at night with the feeling of my lungs being squeezed.  And if I have to bend over at work, I feel like I am going to pass out. 

Seriously, if this child doesn't drop soon I am going to lose it.  I'd rather have pressure on my bladder and cervix than on my lungs.  I can't stand it!

    Hang in there! I was the same way it was really bad and started around the time where you are at. It doesn't really get better but you get used to it! I woke up this morning and can breathe I hope he's finally dropped!

    I grew up with asthma so I know sometimes if you sleep in almost a sitting up position it helps.  Try putting like 3 pillows behind you and see if that helps.  Hope the baby drops soon so you can breathe again!
