A member asked:
I'm 25 week pregnant. i feel breathlessness sometimes when baby moves in one side.but normally when baby kicks, i don't feel any problem at all.

25 weeks pregnant: At "25 weeks", the size of the uterus is usually enough to reduce the motion of the diaphragm muscle, which prevents full expansion of lungs. Depending on the extent of activity, not the baby's position, some shortness of breath will occur until delivery.
