Does anyone else randomly feel like they are being suffocated?

I am 37 weeks but this has been happening for a couple of weeks now. It usually happens when I'm in bed but sometimes when I am standing. It happens when I'm laying on my left side or right side, not just my back.

I randomly will feel a pressure in my head, like I have no oxygen. I have to reposition myself and take a deep breath through my nose and the feeling goes. Anyone else have this?

Not sure if it's EXACTLY the same feeling but I'm struggling to breathe right now when laying in bed. You can hear me trying to breathe so loudly! And heavily and fast and it doesn't feel like I'm getting air even tho I am

Do you have low blood pressure?
