hello,
thank you for your query
these two are not related.
breathlessness in late pregnancy is mainly due to gravid uterus bulges the diaphragm upward.pulmonary hypertension,heart failure,copd etc
but those are not related to bronchitis in baby..
in newborn it is mostly due to viral infection,congenital heart disease,pneumonia etc.
i would advise you to consult your gynaecologist as you r 5 month pregnant now..get proper checkups and ivestigations like echocardiography,pft,etc.
hope this is helpful.
regards.
