It is common to develop a murmur during pregnancy because of all the extra blood flow. The shortness of breath could be baby getting bigger and crowding the lungs. If it makes you anxious though give your dr a call.

Yea my mom told me to call him but I hate when they look at u like u don't know what u r talking about. Also sometimes they say its our hormones and we just feel sensitive. I'm going to give it a couple more min and if it gets worst probably will end at the ER
