Very normal. I've felt that way my whole pregnancy, I'm now 33 weeks. Can't wait for it to be over and have my little boy.

It's a normal pregnancy symptom.  The expanding uterus means your diaphragm can't fully inflate so you can't get as deep a breath as before.  Try lifting your arms up to allow your ribs to expand into the back of your ribcage a little more.
