am I crazy? this is the weirdest feeling

I am 33 weeks today and for the past couple of weeks (it's been worse the last couple days) I have this shortness of breathe with a feeling like I have "smoke" in my lungs and nobody around me smokes... Am I crazy? Has anyone else ever felt like this?

Re: am I crazy? this is the weirdest feeling

  • That's about when the baby really started pushing on my ribs and invading my lungs. It would get slightly better laying down, but my chest still felt tight.

    I also noticed when I would swell and retain fluid, I would cough a lot. Most likely my lungs being crowded and maybe being a bit hindered by the fluid in my system.

    Mention it to your OB if it's concerning you though. Can't hurt to say something :D

  • I feel like I'm about to have a panic attack because I can't catch my breath. It's been about an hour and a half. It's the worst feeling. I don't feel like I have smoke in my lungs, just that I can't inhale enough to fill my lungs.
