Im 40 wks and 3 days and i woke up today with trouble breathing , it comes and goes and it feels like pressure on my chest and im almost unable to breathe for 30 sec or so, what can it be?
IDK but I would be at L&D looking them in the face asking that same question while demanding they induce me... Sorry to hear you are going through that. Good luck and best wishes
This souds weird but I felt my early labor contractions more in my chest and it made it feel like it was hard to breathe. I WAS able to breathe just fine, just felt like an increase in pressure if that makes any sense at all.
Quoting Chelsea Dawns Mama:" Go to L&D. Shortness of breathe is a sign of pre-e i believe."
I couldn't breathe when I was induced and a week later had the same problem followed by two seizures. Not saying same will happen to her but if it is bothering you get checked.

I felt the pressure up in my throat too. It was weird, but as my labor progressed I didn't feel it as much or maybe just my stomach hurt too much for me to notice lol.
