I'm 5'4 and am just now starting to have trouble's. It's not all the time...But last night when I went to bed, I mos def had some breathing to get under control. Then any time I rolled over, it was another task
I'm only 27 weeks but I have trouble breathing now. Not b/c it's cramped or anything. She's not pushing up on my ribs just yet but I have shortness of breath really bad. I had the palpations in my first trimester, didn't matter if I was jogging or simply climbing the stairs. They were scary, but I was told are completely normal. My heart feels like it's going to beat right out of my chest and I can't seem to catch my breath.
I still feel fine in that regard. I'm 6', so I think that makes a big difference. Every now and then I feel pressure on my ribs, but I'm still able to take deep breaths.

this week - but not all of the time. Just sometimes, if I try to go up too many stairs or am running around a lot. I'm measuring about 34 weeks though so the OB said I will feel like I'm at 34 weeks so you might have a ways to go.
At night I sometimes have a pressure on my lungs, I am caring low, and his feet are under my right ribs. This just started this last week. I am really short 4' 10 and have a very short torso. So im guessing it will get worse here soon!
I'm 5'10" also and my baby is quite low so I have never really had that feeling. She'll stick a foot up in my ribs now and then but that's the only time I have any difficulty.

i have just started feeling this way the past week. Before that i had bad pains for months around pelvic bone and strain. I am also 5'9 and i think it took a lot longer then normal to go through that for some reason. I feel the baby at times very low..i dont feel hungry a lot because the baby is pressing on my stomach..so i feel full 1/2 the time.
Mine started at around 25 weeks but has gotten progressively worse every week. I'm super short (5'0) and on the chunky side. I have my 28 weeks appt. tomorrow, so I'm going to ask questions then.
Re: When did you start feeling cramped/having trouble breathing?
27 weeks, I feel short of breath sometimes but not always. no craming either. . . .
I've never had trouble breathing, but in the past 2 weeks or so, I've developed heartburn, so I know LO is pushing up on things.
FWIW, I'm 5'4", but I've got a looong torso and have been carrying low the entire time.
