If you eat too much at six months of pregnancy, it will cause the stomach to enlarge, which will then compress the lungs. In addition, the enlarged uterus will also continuously compress the heart and lungs, so there will be chest tightness and shortness of breath. In addition, it cannot be ruled out that pulmonary embolism, pregnancy hypertension and other diseases are the causes.
