Breathlessness at 27 weeks pregnant

Hi everyone,
I’m currently 27 weeks pregnant. I have noticed my chest feeling tight at times and having a burning sensation. Would you say this is heart burn and normal? I’m a over thinker and always thinking the worst and I’ve heard about PE which has made me worry.
TIA x

You could ring your local maternity unit and they will triage but I’d be tempted to try Gaviscon double action first- I’m 26 weeks and have only just started to need it as I was getting a tight burning sensation

But if not definitely call the maternity unit to check you out

Normal! My heartburn with my last baby started around 28 weeks

sounds like heartburn

if you feel out of breath after going up a flight of stairs you are likely to be anaemic

Welcome to the blessed heartburn 🥵 it's horrendous! I had it with my first and I'm 25 weeks now and it's started rearing it's ugly head again. It's really normal, Renee and gaviscon will be your bestest friends for the forseeable.

The chewable tablets are a godsend! More expensive but work faster than the awful liquid stuff
