That's not normal.  You are only 9 weeks and should be able to walk without these issues.  I ran and jogged until my 7 month of pregnancy, however, that was my routine before I got pregnant.  Walking shouldn't be an issue.  

You need to consult your OB/GYN and get assessed soon.

Hi there.  These are very odd pregnancy symptoms.  Of course people can walk when pregnant.  Many pregnant women continue to exercise throughout there entire pregnancy.  You hear of breathing issues when the baby is far along into the pregnancy due to the size pushing up into the lungs but not at 9 weeks.  

do you have a history of asthma?
