Im almost 31 weeks and breathing at times is getting difficult for me as well. Taking deep breaths and at times my son will be in a position when Im just trying to inhale and it'll cause sharp pain in my upper back..

Thanks :) Im expecting a boy and i didnt have this discomfort when I was pregnant with my daughter. It seems the majority of my pregnancy i have struggled with my breathing. Im so glad I have only a few more weeks to go.

Difficulty breathing and eating is normal so far along. The baby is getting big and crushing your stomach and lungs. Trouble breathing was one of my biggest discomforts while pregnant with my son.
