Shortness of breath!

I'm 27 weeks and I feel like I can't breath right. I've had shortness of breath before but right now it's just really bad. I'm kinda freaking out is it normal? In any position I get its as bad!! :(

That's happened to me a couple times but from what I was told its just the baby moving up and squishing your insides. Once the baby drops it might help out some

When I was pregnant that also happened to me. I had to take huge breaths just to try to catch up in the air I was missing out on. It's horrible.
