sleeping positions

Im on week 28 now and expecting twins. I have been sleeping on my side since the 4th mth and although i had to wake up every time to change position, i was still able to sleep. Now it hurts for me to change positions and i get really breathless aft changing from right to left or vice versa. Is this normal?

As you get heavier, discomfort and breathlessness are expected. You will probably need to prop yourself up with more pillows to improve the breathlessness, and you may consider a pregnancy pillow to see if it can help you get more comfortable in bed?
