What Causes Shortness Of Breath During Pregnancy?

i feel shortness of breath my o2 sat is good 97-98 and my pulse is 100-110 i am 34 weeks pregnant. when i stand or walk i feel like fainting and have pressure in my chest. i do not have a bp cuff at home right now but generally it has been running 90/50-60 s it did drop to 80/40 s one day and that was when my lips started going numb and my tounge. my legs were also burning. to return to shortness of breath i know i have some flem in my chest because i coughed some up and it was yellow and whenever i have flem in my chest my back itches in between my shoulder blades.
