Trouble breathing in any position

37 weeks pregnant and the last two days I've been having a really difficult time breathing. I woke up last night feeling like my air supply was completely cut off. Today no matter if I'm standing, sitting, or lying down I still can't breath and feel pressure in my throat and chest. I know this is suppose to be normal but how do you get through it?!

I have been going though the same stuff. With feeling like I can't breath and the terrible heart burn I can't wait to deliver.I have felt like my breathing is getting a little better since she dropped some. I think that is the only thing that can help.  I just turn 38 weeks so I'm hoping these next two weeks go by quickly

Hoping she drops or they induce me early. I wake up panicked not being able to breathe. I thought maybe it was acid reflux or heartburn but meds don't seem to help. Feels like I'm being strangled.
