Breathless in 30 weeks especially wearing masks.

I have recently breathless encounters these few days especially when walking too fast or wearing masks. And feeling pain all around under breast area. Is it normal?

Yesss! Me me me. Both pregnancies I have that constant breathlessness and the under boob rib pain. The pain is called costochondritis in medical terms. Mine is so painful I can hardly walk or stand 15mins without sitting down to rest. I had to keep taking hospital leave since I can’t work with the pain. It goes away after baby is out though!

Me too. In lesser crowded places I always pull down my mask till I can breathe through my nose. I just cover my mouth and just below the nostrils. When I’m in a crowded place then I’ll pull up properly. In open spaces I don’t even wear my mask and avoid walking near people.

Yeap its normal. I get breathless while seating, standing and walking short distance. And lying down sometimes i felt breathless too. But its normal. Keep finding position that youre comfortable with.

It’s normal.. 😊
