    chest pain during BHs

    I have found lately that I get some horrid chest pains during my BHs,
    I get BHs all the time and majority of them are quite strong and uncomfortable.
    My question is, is it normal to get chest pains during them (I never did with ds)? What could be causing it? And how can I stop or reduce it? I wouldn't mind so much if it was here and there but as I said I get strong BHs all the time and I feel like I can't breathe properly which is concerning when some of the BHs go for over a minute.

    Did I say 'BHs' enough in this thread lol

    Oh hun, that sounds awful! I don't think it's really that normal but I could be wrong. I'd be double checking with your carer - just give them a call.

    It could well be the position of your baby putting pressure on your lungs but I know I'm experiencing some unbelievable BHs now (and frequently) and I definitely don't have any chest pains. I actually started breathing a lot better a few weeks back.

    Hope you get some relief and hopefully it's nothing to worry about
