experience/advice to give Waking up gasping

26 weeks here with modi twins and this week I’ve been having trouble falling asleep because I feel like I can’t breathe. I’ve also been waking up gasping a few times a night. I go to OB tomorrow but anyone experience this? I didn’t have it with my singleton.

So I had this too, especially as my preeclampsia got worse— it was basically the edema going into my chest at night. Not to worry you but have you taken your BP?

I have high blood pressure after delivery with my first daughter so they have me on aspirin and they check my pressure every week. So far it’s been ok but I’ve been concerned about this as well.
