Baby B transverse. I feel like I'm suffocating...

Holly

We found out at 32 weeks (a week and a half ago) that Baby B has turned himself transverse (sideways). Previously both boys were each on one half of my uterus and breech (Baby A to my left side of my belly button, Baby B to my right side of my belly button). Now, Baby A is head down more near the middle, and Baby B is above his brother, head on my left, feet on my right, near my ribs stretching out completely sideways. He goes back and forth between head on my left (transverse) and head in the middle (breech) with legs near his brothers head. I woke up this morning feeling like I was literally being suffocated because Baby B was laying as high as he could on my ribs, directly under my breasts. I had to lift my hands above my head in order to take a deep enough breath and not feel like I was being suffocated.

This has never happened to me before. Has anyone else had this happen?

My husband just commented last night that my belly looked longer. I assumed that meant they were dropping, but now I'm doubting that with Baby B even higher up than normal.
