As your due date comes closer the baby will "drop". You'll start to feel some pressure on your bladder and between your hips that will make it really difficult to walk. I also got winded on short walks. Take your time, but you have to keep moving. It's important for controlling your weight gain and the baby's development. I've also heard it helps with labor because you get really winded when pushing. I never pushed, so I couldn't tell you if that's true or not.
You also might feel side stitches or pain in your hip muscles. Those are ligaments pulling and stretching in preparation for birth. You're getting close to the end!
You might find you can't lay on your back because it hurts. Your hips might be popping out of place, mine still do from my pregnancy.
