8 weeks pregnant and feel like i need to "gasp" for air at rest or exertion... is this normal/acceptable?

No. Call UR OB!: Try to avoid er, as all of our investigations into your health seem to involve radiation & you are still 1st trimester--but that still be what is best for you, just try to ask your OB if anything else based on your history. Uterus not out of pelvis until about 12 wks, so hard to blame much on it--at least w/o ruling out lot of other things first!
