Gas and indigestion: It is quite common for gas to get trapped in the chest area, leading to indigestion and sometimes a dull chest pain during pregnancy. It often gets worse with the beginning of the third trimester (around the 27th week) [2], but can occur in the first and second trimesters as well.
Sleeping on your back while pregnant can create pressure on a major vein called the inferior vena cava. This vein returns blood from the lower body to your heart. This may lead to lightheadedness and/or numbness. In addition this may cause pressure on your back and intestines, leading to discomfort.
