No question, just venting. This is always the worst thing for me. I'm short and have a short torso so no matter how high or low baby is I feel like my diaphragm and lungs have to work so hard!
At barely 5 foot tall I get to make the decision to stand and let my feet swell or sit and not breath. And heaven forbid if I lay in the recliner! Some nights I wake up gasping, almost like my lungs had stopped for a moment and then jumpstarted again, all because LO decided to shove a foot into my lungs.
I am 5 foot also and it is so hard to breathe!!! Especially at night when I want to get comfy and just pass out! Honestly standing is so hard I'm gasping for air. I think short pregnant girls should get an oxygen tank and mask at the first prenatal appointment... I can't wait to breathe normally!!!
