Trouble Breathing
Posted: 06-20-06 22:28pm

Apparently i'm not carrying as low as I thought. My baby hasn't dropped yet (i'm 33 weeks along) and the last few days i've been experiencing difficulty breathing. It's especially bad tonight. Changing positions seems to help, but only for a half hour or so. It feels like i'm not getting a full breath of air. I assume she's crowding into my ribcage. I don't know if I can handle this for another few weeks... I really hope she drops soon!

Hiya hun,it could carry on for a few weeks yet as some babies dont drop till last minute,usually you'll find they'll drop during the last 2 weeks of pregnancy.
Just take it easy,and and relax before the big day comes xx

That sounds scary, can the doctor do anything? I cant remember exactly when my baby dropped, but it was in the last month. My midwife could feel he was really far down there, she was surprised. It hurt a bit when I walked, like made the bones sore. Some babies dont drop until during the birth contractions I heard.
