I've been feeling breathless since 23/24 weeks and worse after eating and lying back in a chair etc. I've been checked out and everything is fine apparently.

So - if it's the position of the baby, is this too early for it to be cramping my lung space and when does the bump usually drop?

Hi... No, not to early to be pushing everything out the way and making you breathless..... But way too early for bump to drop. Your bump drops when babys head engages... This is usually about 2-4 weeks before labour in first pregnancies or for subsequent pregnancies, that can happen when you go into labour. The breathlessness does go once bump drops though :)
