*Long Post Sorry*
So I've been very dizzy, light headed and extremely tired. My nurse said it was due to the anemia and put me on iron tablets.

*What I'm more frustrated at is the chest heaviness and shortness of breath.*
I went to the cardiologist today and he said that my heart flutters/palpitations were common during pregnancy but since I had a surgery for them 8 years ago he gave me a heart monitor for 48 hours. He also scheduled me for a heart ultrasound along with another appointment next week.

*He didn't act like the flutters and heaviness were tied together, but he almost acted like he has no idea what's causing the chest heaviness. I constantly feel like I need deep breathes but can't get them and it feels like I have something laying on my chest 24/7.
Has anyone else had this or does anyone have a clue what it might be and how to help it?? I can't even imagine what I'm gonna be like at 8 months if this keeps up.*
 
I've had this happen to me before but I was in the second trimester. It wasn't constant either. But definitely felt labored in my breathing.
