3rd Trimester

When did you start feeling cramped/having trouble breathing?

I am 28 weeks and still breathe fine so I am wondering when you usually start to feel cramped.  I am 5'10" so I am hoping that will help!  Thanks :)

Re: When did you start feeling cramped/having trouble breathing?

  • I have been feeling it for a couple of weeks... but I'm only 5'4" and 29 weeks

  • I'm really not feeling cramped yet, but the trouble breathing started about a week or so ago.  I've been told I'm carrying high though.

  • It was around 26 weeks for me but I am 5'2 LOL
  • 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'm 5'10'' and have also been told I am carrying high. This past week I have started feeling out of breath and I am 31 weeks.
    Baby number two! Coming soon! June 8th.
  • 27 weeks, I feel short of breath sometimes but not always. no craming either. . . .

  • 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.
  • 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.

  • 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! Smile
  • Sunday.  37w2d.  It comes and goes since then but this is the first time I've had trouble breathing and felt uncomfortable.

  • It started for me this week. Its like I went through a growth spurt and everything hit at once!
  • 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'm 5'2" and I've been having problems since maybe 23-24 weeks. But this is my second, and my fundal height has been 2-3 weeks ahead of normal.

  • 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.
  • Just in the last few weeks.  I'm really tall, but short waisted. 
  • 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.
