May be normal: The intestines slow down during pregnancy and you get more gas. Bloating, burping and passing gas are common in pregnancy. Shortness of breath normally occurs in the third trimester from the uterus decreasing the amount of lung expansion that occurs when you breathe. If earlier in pregnancy though, you might get checked for other lung or heart problems.
