thanks for asking your question
I completely understand your problem
in pregnancy there is increase in intra abdominal pressure and intra thoracic pressure due to growing foetus .
some of the abdominal contents are pushed inside the thorax.
no need to worry this is common with pregnancy
if u experience it more and the symptoms increase then u can consult your gynaecologist
thanks/ regards
feel free to ask more questions
may god bless you and ur child with good health
