That's happening to me but I'm 22 weeks... it shouldn't be happening that early unless you have asthma.. then that could be the cause.

That happened to me, but I was about 18 weeks. So my baby was bigger. Call your doctor and see if it's normal. It doesn't hurt to ask. :)

Later in pregnancy it's normal cause the uterus is compressing your lungs. Idk at 11 weeks. Its not the baby doing it
