There's a phenomenon called the "Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon," or "frequency illusion." Have you ever learned a new word, fact, or idea and then suddenly started seeing it everywhere? That's the Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon in action. After you learn something new or are made aware of something, you unconsciously keep an eye out for it, and as a result, you believe it's occurring more frequently than before. In reality, the frequency hasn't changed—your awareness has.
This phenomenon gets its name from the Baader-Meinhof Group, a German terrorist group from the 1970s. People who heard about the group for the first time felt like they began encountering references to it everywhere, hence the name of the phenomenon.
reply
Another way of interpreting this is that it was always occurring pretty frequently, you just didn't notice before.

When you hold your breath the urge to breathe is caused not by lack of oxygen but from the CO2 buildup.

That explains why I can hold my breath longer when I start to breath out slowly at the end.
