Breathlessness is normal during pregnancy, so don't be nervous. Nervousness and fear will only exacerbate your shortness of breath. Keep your upper body straight and your shoulders back, which will allow your lungs to expand as much as possible. Some pregnant women may even feel shortness of breath in the first trimester, and a small number of them will experience it in the third trimester, as long as it is not severe. If there is a serious possibility of hypoxia, it is best to go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination, check the electrocardiogram, check the heart color ultrasound when necessary, if the examination is normal, you can give birth naturally.
