Difficulting breathing during contractions normal?

Question

I’m 27+1 with my first.

Answer

Same thing happens to me all the time

Answer

That doesn't sound normal to me. Call your doctor

Answer

This happens to me every time I get one especially if I'm laying down, which is normally when I get the most. I did mention to my doctor she said as long as I don't get heart palpitations that last over an hour (only because of a previous heart disease) that it was okay and quite normal.

Answer

Mine are pretty strong at 33 weeks. Not painful, just intense. Changing positions helps me.

Answer

Braxton Hicks should be almost unnoticeable, at most just tightening on your stomach. Call your OB or go call L&D; to see if you should go in.
