Goodness! That sounds rough. Are there certain positions that make it easier to breathe? I didn't have those troubles until I was a little further along. I had to prop myself with pillows at night and sleep reclined. It got much better when she dropped and gave my lungs some room

I don't remember when it started for me, but it did get a little bit better once baby dropped. I'm only 5ft tall so there wasn't much room for him to drop. If you're taller, you might get some extra relief.

Yup I had this as well...it got better when I lay on my sides rather than my back.

Oof, I remember this shortness of breath... it really was frightening at times. I carried Wagon Jr. really high and when he dropped I literally felt like someone had loosened a tight metal corset from around my chest!!! Hang in there :T and if it gets really concerning I'd see a doctor or a chiropractor who specializes in prenatal care.
