This might be a really stupid question but I'm 34 weeks pregnant with dd2, and to say I've got this weird pressure in my chest it kind of feels like a lump like when you try to take a tablet and it won't go down properly. It even hurts to swallow, Could it be my baby's feet or is it to high up? My 1st dd was breech so she was kicking in the other direction

Too high up for baby's feet, possible anxiety but call your mid wife to get checked out

I'm 35+6 & have had chest tightness (feels like tablet stuck) but no pain, since 24wks. It's very uncomfortable & abit scary. Although been seen by lots of doctors, consultants & midwife, all think it's baby pushing up so cause of tightness. Sometimes it comes & goes depending on baby position.

What does help me is, getting on all 4s.

Hope gets better for you soon x

Maybe acid indigestion? How long have you had it?

I think it probably was baby pushing up on something, it's gone now. Defiantly not anxiety, I've had pacic attacks before and it wasn't like that. I dont think it was indigestion, I had loads of that with dd1 and it was different. I have low placenta so I think baby is higher than normal anyway , I get lots of digs in the ribs. I'll be glad when she's here, this pregnancy malarkey isnt fun
