I'm currently 29weeks and I can't breathe properly. I always feel like I'm struggling all the time. And it's worse when I try to go to sleep. Anyone have any tips that can help?

make sure you tell your GP as soon as possible as this is not a typical symptom.
I was like this with my 2nd pregnancy and now I'm 20 weeks pregnant with my 3rd and it's the same again. I am low in iron which doesn't help, it can be normal hormones contribute so does the need for extra o2. And the way Bub is sitting ect. But I do agree with the other reply get it checked.
I think it depends on how you're carrying too. I carried really high when pregnant with my son. I always felt breathless and I always seemed to be taking short shallow breaths like my lungs just wouldn't open up far enough (as soon as he was out I remember thinking "omg I can breathe again" lol).
It is normal to a point, all your organs are getting squished out of the way by the growing baby so it's no wonder really, but I agree with getting it checked best to be safe than sorry.
