You need to contact your doctor ASAP and let him/her know what's going on and that your inhaler is not helping.  It could be an early infection, an asthma attack, something related to the pregnancy - it's really hard to know.  But for the health and safety for both yourself and your baby, please see your doctor as soon as you can.
