HELLO THERE.
THANKS FOR WRITING.
BURNING IN STOMACH COULD BE DUE TO PREGNANCY RELATED GASTRITIS.
HOWEVER THE PROBLEMS OF HEAVINESS IN CHEST, DIFFICULTY IN BREATHING NEEDS TO BE EVALUATED FOR ANY UNDERLYING HEART DISEASE WHICH IS SOMETIMES MANIFESTED FIRST DURING PREGNANCY.
KINDLY CONSULT A PHYSICIAN FOR PROPER PHYSICAL EXAMINATION AND TESTS LIKE ECG AND ABDOMINAL ULTRASOUND.
AVOID ANY PAIN KILLERS OR SELF MEDICATION WITHOUT A DIAGNOSIS.
TAKE CARE.
