36 weeks and struggling to breathe

[Mummyspider27]

Is or has anyone else Really struggled to breathe towards the end of pregnancy? I don’t remember this at all from last time. Sometimes its so bad I feel a bit panicked (which is a vicious circle when you can’t breathe anyway!) x

If you're struggling to breath call your maternity assessment unit ASAP and let them know. Could just be that baby is wedged right under your diaphragm so breathing is difficult, or could be something else like pre-eclampsia.
Get yourself checked ASAP. I hope you're ok

It isn’t continuous, it comes and goes throughout the day. I didn’t realise it was a sign of pre eclampsia though x

It can be, but most likely baby is wedged under your diaphragm.
Always best to speak to someone though just to make sure everything is ok.
When I got breathless I bought myself a BP machine so as long as my BP was ok I knew it wasn't pre-eclampsia, as I couldn't get in to see anyone to check me over.
I'm sure you're fine but better to be safe than sorry x
