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.
